Hey! My name is Jeff.
When I was eight years old, my mother decided that I should pick up the violin or the piano. I didn't really know what either of those words meant, so I went with the one I heard first. Thanks, mom!
After years of classical training, I grew to appreciate the violin, but what I really loved about music was exploring new worlds of sound. That's why I've since picked up the violin, viola, cello, double bass, trombone, and piano as part of a musical career that I can only describe as one of the greatest gifts of my life.
Somehow one thing led to another, and I started traveling the world performing in places like Costa Rica's National Theater and Taiwan's Presidential Office. Back at home in Los Angeles, I've played in everything from short films and Broadway musicals to string quartets and the UCLA Symphony Orchestra, where I held an assistant principal position.
But at the end of the day, I still feel like that same eight-year-old kid at heart: noodling around on whatever instrument I can get my hands on, chasing new sounds, and trying to use music to navigate this crazy ride we call life. Thanks for joining me!
