Biography

I completed a Bachelor of Arts in Music History and Literature with a minor in Philosophy at Southern Illinois University Edwardsville in August of 2011. During that time, I was an Undergraduate Research Assistant and Research Associate in musicology. I am currently a graduate student and teaching assistant in musicology and philosophy at the University of Idaho. I have published for Oxford University Press, the Musikproduktion company in Munich, the Southeast Philosophy Congress, and the Long Island Philosophical Society. I am also a freelance contributor for the arts, entertainment, and culture section of the Moscow-Pullman Daily News. I am interested in and available for both academic, specialized presentations on musicology and other subjects pertaining to the performing arts, as well as for presentations geared toward lay audience.
