Since 2016 I have worked as a recording engineer, first at Tiny Telephone Recording in San Francisco/Oakland (2016-2021), and later at a collective warehouse studio in Oakland called The Creek (2018-2021). Since 2021 I’ve worked at The Acorn: a retreat-style studio I built in a cabin in the high San Gabriel Mountains.
In 2025 I joined the faculty of the UCLA Herb Alpert School of Music, where I teach courses in music history and theory. I also work as union organizer on various campaigns in higher education in Southern California.
My current music projects include writing songs in Abe Hollow (solo) and Tuckamore (duo with Marissa Deitz); playing saxophone in Kisskadee and Total Heat; and improvising with ad-hoc collaborators.
