Description
Who am I?
Greetings friends. I would like to tell you a little about myself, my training, and how I came to offer the work I do. My approach will be more personal than you might find in a normal bio. There is also a more conventional bio below.
During my youth I always loved music, especially exploratory improvisational music. I was also interested in the inspirations and philosophical truths behind religious teaching. I envisioned living in a world where people treated each other with kindness and respect, and lived in harmony with the world around them. However, these interests seemed at best hobbies, and often more like a hidden fantasy world.
Meanwhile I received a strong intellectual education. I went to boarding school at Phillips Exeter Academy, and then I went on to Amherst College. At Amherst I studied literature and creative writing, and eventually received my B.A. in English. However, during my last two years, my deeper interests became more clear to me, and I studied eastern spiritual teachings and philosophy with famed Buddhist scholar, Robert Thurman, and world music with ethnomusicologist, David Reck. I also began to get involved in the local music scene.
