My sales role with the internet service provider Astound (powered by Wave) has me focused on residential sales in about 40 Portland metro area high rises, building relationships with property management and serving over 4,000 customers. I am also a musician and an educator with deep humanitarian interests. I love to be a connector and to collaborate with many individuals in very different disciplines. Just passing 4 years with Astound/Wave in two different roles, I've more than tripled the number of customers and building penetration in my portfolio all while seeing the company through a challenging restructuring/billing system conversion in 2019, the global pandemic starting in 2020, and a rebrand in 2022.As a musician, I have delved deeply into many instruments, styles, and roles so as to be of service in as broad a way as possible and, as a human being in general, I try to do the same. I play unique music on a variety of instruments. I also sing, compose, arrange, and improvise. I love making music in all sorts of genres, though I'm most steeped in western classical art music, Indian Classical vocal music, and Americana of all sorts (jazz, rock, Bluegrass, R&B, etc.) My eclectic musical nature has landed me 3 performances at Carnegie Hall on 3 different instruments and in 3 different musical genres. I've also been on recordings and stages around the world with vocalist Lindsey Stormo, song keeper Peia Luzzi, Trillium Voices Estonian choir, conductor Matt Butler and his Everyone Orchestra, The Superpowers afrobeat orchestra, jazz/neo-soul vocalist Gretchen Elise, storytellers Brother Blue and Michael Meade, dancers Liz Roncka and Olivier Besson, and virtuoso guitarist/singer-songwriter Christie Lenée.
