I have experience writing for ensembles of many different sizes, ranging from A-class high school bands to 400-person collegiate bands. One of the most important aspects of a successful program is an arranger that understands a band's strengths and limitations, as well as somebody willing to collaborate with its directors. I am eager to get involved with programs to help make sure their season is best set up for success!
