Hailing from New York's Capital District, I have had the distinct pleasure of immersing myself in the world of the performing arts for over 15 years, serving as a performer, director, and adjudicator. My journey in this activity has allowed me to develop a deep understanding of both the creative and technical aspects of the marching arts, giving me a well-rounded perspective that I bring to every role I undertake.

I am deeply passionate about supporting the growth and development of programs, viewing them through the dual lens of both a performer and an instructor. This unique perspective enables me to understand the challenges and triumphs that groups face throughout their seasons, allowing me to offer meaningful insights that foster progress and excellence.

As an adjudicator, my approach is rooted in providing constructive, actionable feedback that empowers teams to refine their performances and reach their full potential. I strive to offer a comprehensive and balanced evaluation, ensuring that my commentary not only acknowledges strengths but also provides clear guidance on areas for improvement. My goal is to contribute to the success of each program by offering insights that are both educational and encouraging, helping teams navigate their competitive journey with clarity and confidence.
