About Me

My lifelong passion for writing and literature (which are wed to each other) continues to stay active, with art and cultural freelance writing assignments for on-line entertainment web sites. Home has been New England, Rocky Mountains, and London

Recently, I have been taking any opportunity to expose myself to more flavors of jazz and starting-up a contributing freelance writing passion several years ago has helped re-ignite this journey. My father was a jazz listener (L.Armstrong, D. Ellington, E. Fitzgerald, E. Garner, O.Peterson and more) and first introduced me to this period of jazz. I have since been drawn-in to all varieties, and in particular during my college youth - I was a jazz-rock fusion fanatic. My career his taken me in the direction of museum studies abroad in London and art collections services in Denver CO. and Boston MA. - and another turn - as I am now a special education tutor public and private. I love to share this music so original and a part of the roots of America - and who we are. Looking forward to contributing to “All About Jazz” and meeting new views and experiences in this wide world of jazz.
