I have been developing my management skills as I am often asked to assemble and coordinate string players for recording sessions, shows and various events. So far I have played in and gathered/managed players for The Dear Hunter (two day recording session for their album, "Migrant"), The Receiving End of Sirens (string players were needed for shows in Boston, Rhode Island and at the Bamboozle Festival in Asbury Park, NJ), Andy Suzuki & the Method (album recording session) and Thirty Seconds to Mars (assembled a string trio to travel to NYC to play a radio session at Sirius XM and a "Church of Mars" show).

The Boston Ballet recently selected me to be the violist in a string quartet performing in Alexander Ekman’s "Cacti" in May 2014. This innovative choreographer features a string quartet improvising on stage with the dancers; the quartet will also perform classical repertoire with the Boston Ballet orchestra.I will also travel to NYC with the ballet to perform Cacti at Lincoln Center to end their 50th anniversary.

As a member of VSQ's live performance string quartet, I have performed with Thirty Seconds to Mars on MTV Unplugged as well as at their "Church of Mars" shows in NYC, on the 100th episode of the CW Network's "Gossip Girl" and at a celebrity wedding in the Hamptons. I have recorded on two full-length VSQ albums, "VSQ Tribute: 90’s Rock Hits" and "VSQ Tribute to Alternative Hits of the 90’s".
