I'm a vocalist, teaching artist, and champion of contemporary composition. I perform and collaborate with a dynamic array of composers, chamber ensembles and orchestras. While I'm fortunate to work with world-famous composers like Jake Heggie, Kaija Saariaho, John Harbison and Aaron Jay Kernis, I eagerly seek out music by emerging and under-represented voices. My artistic mission is to lift up new and contemporary vocal literature to serve as narrative for the hard to speak about issues of our times. In the last decade I have acquired a deep love for the art and craft of recording, collaborating with remarkable music creators like Leslie Ann Jones, Andreas Meyer, Michael Romanowski, Lolly Lewis, Dann Thompson, Piper Payne, Jeff Kolhede, Alberto Hernandez and Andy Happel. My two portrait albums, Currents and Love Life, were produced by multi-GRAMMY® award winner Leslie Ann Jones at Skywalker Sound. I can be heard on releases from Naxos, Arsis, Albany, Ravello, Navona, and Jaded Ibis.
