About Me
I am a musician, composer, and scientist, specializing in the statistical modeling of musical structure. I studied music psychology, computational musicology, and scientific methodology with David Huron. I have presented at numerous national and international conferences, both in the humanities (Society of Music Theory) and the sciences (Society for Music Perception and Cognition, International Conference on Music Information Retrieval). From 2016-2018, I worked on McGill University's Single Interface for Musical Score Search and Analysis project, developing tools for the analysis of digital scores. I am currently a lecturer at the Georgia Institute of Technology, where I teach classes in recording technology, rock/pop performance, and computational composition.
Education
I completed my PhD in Music Theory at Ohio State University, where I studied with David Huron. My doctoral thesis involved the creation, curation, and analysis of a corpus of popular rap transcriptions: the Musical Corpus of Flow—research later published in Empirical Musicology Review.
I completed a BA and a MA in Music Composition at the University of California Santa Cruz, where I studied with David Evan Jones, David Cope, and Larry Polansky.
