I am a professional saxophone player and arranger who has worked for the evening music program of the University of Chile as a saxophone instructor and ensemble coach. During my studies at UNT I also served as a teaching assistant for the Jazz Arranging class and as a grader for Music Theory.
As a performer, I have worked in Latin American music groups, wind symphonic ensembles, big bands, saxophone quartets, rock bands, jazz bands, and both chamber and full symphonic orchestras. I would be glad to help you develop in any of these styles of music!
I hold an MM in Jazz Studies from the University of North Texas (UNT). I also hold a BA and a Professional Certificate in Saxophone Performance and a BA in Music Theory from the University of Chile. .
