Born in Baltimore, Maryland, I moved to Tennessee in 2024 after more than four decades of performing and playing the Great Highland Bagpipes.

Over the years, I have had the opportunity to perform with and alongside several established pipe bands and organizations, gaining extensive experience in weddings, funerals, memorial services, military ceremonies, parades, community events, and other special occasions.

Whether you are planning a wedding, honoring a loved one, recognizing a veteran, celebrating a special occasion, or looking for a distinctive musical performance, I bring more than 40 years of piping experience to every engagement.
