Research

My record of Scholarship and Creative Activities span my career as a music theorist, educator, and performing musician. I strive to integrate each of these as I foster music literacy skills through my analyses of repertoire and mentoring developing musicians.

Scholarship

My research and conference activities largely span the analysis of various tonal/post-tonal musics and Curriculum Studies (Aural Skills and Music Theory pedagogy). I regularly explore contemporary low brass and older vocal traditional and liturgical repertoire through a myriad of analytic lenses to better understand their sonic architecture. Samples of my publications and presentations can be found on online portals such as KSU's Digital Commons, ORCID, Web of Science, Proquest Pivot, and Google Scholar.
