New Orleans, Louisiana, United States

I have been a working musician most of my life. In that capacity I have produced, arranged and performed in, as well as managed, booked, and creatively-directed multiple group and solo projects. I've curated musical selections for museum installations, produced multiple music videos and concert tours, and drummed and DJ'd on stages and streets across Asia, Europe and North America. Between 2008 and 2014 I managed the international development of the careers of New Orleans Bounce artists Big Freedia & Nicky Da B.

New Orleans, La And Global

I conceptualized & co-founded New Orleans Airlift with Delaney Martin in 2007 in response to the unique challenges faced by artists in post-Katrina New Orleans. We worked to contribute to the continued existence and success of our city's artistic community in spite of ecological & economic adversity through the creation of cross-culturally collaborative works of art. New Orleans Airlift's flagship project "Music Box Village" has become a unique venue for collaboration in "musical architecture", featuring invention & performances by global artists working with local creators.

For 8 years I installed sculptural, visual and installation art for multiple companies, museums, galleries and private individuals. I was employed by Atelier 4 in NYC for a majority of art fairs including Frieze London, Berlin Art Week, Art Basel Miami and Switzerland, Art Chicago, Armory Show NY and others. Additionally, I worked local to New Orleans as chief preparator at Arthur Roger Gallery for 5 years, and as a freelancer at the New Orleans Museum of Art. I also worked independently for several galleries and private clients.
