as a composer
I believe in finely crafted music that expresses humor, passion, faith, beauty, and presence. I love the colors of life and work to express this variety in everything I write. I am a big fan of wonder, and delight in the sheer joy of being alive through creating and sharing music and song.
Like the joy of the sea coming home to shore
May the music of laughter break through your soul.
“As the wind wants to make everything dance,
may your gravity be lightened by grace…
As water takes whatever shape it is in,
so free may you be about who you become.
As silence smiles
on the other side of what’s said,
may a sense of irony give you perspective.
As time remains free of all that it frames,
may fear or worry never put you in chains.
May your prayer of listening deepen enough
to hear in the distance the laughter of God.”
