Fiddle

Before I ever stood at a podium, I was on a stage with a fiddle in hand and a love for music that’s been with me since I was a kid. I’ve been playing for over 20 years, shaped by bluegrass jams, Americana ballads, Willie n’ Waylon, and the kind of tunes that feel like home and heartache all at once..

My style lives somewhere between precision and soul; rooted in classical training, but driven by improvisation, instinct, and a deep respect for tradition. Music keeps me grounded, creative, and connected to the communities I care about.

These days, you’ll find me playing with local bands, teaching the occasional lesson, and performing everywhere from farmers markers to regional festivals. Fiddle has always been my first love, and it’s still the language I know best.

Meet the bands I play with below.

Them Badgers

Part country and part punk, Them Badgers come from Olympia's traditions of American folk music and irrepressible queer activism. They've lived these songs, in all of their exuberance and sorrow, misadventure and hilarity, and have laughed twice as hard as they've cried.

You’re as likely to find them playing on a street corner as a ballroom. With powerful, gripping vocals, and some mean fiddle licks, they aim to connect with you and see you moved.

Pygmy Rabbit

Born in the heart of Ellensburg, Washington, Pygmy Rabbit is a string band with soul, grit, and a love for the classics. With roots tangled in folk, bluegrass, Americana, and country, they breathe new life into old tunes - while tipping their hats to tradition. Armed with guitar, mandolin, bass, and fiddle, Pygmy Rabbits channel the soundscape of the shrub-steppe that stretches across the valley they call home.

Pygmy Rabbit was born in the spring of 2025 - stay tuned for website and social media information!
