Heart-swelling Moment During Federal Way PACC Fundraiser
I want to give a big THANK YOU to those of you who attended the PACC fundraiser on November 1st and for supporting this project!
As the 5th largest city in King Country, the Federal Way community deserves to be a cultural and arts center. I strongly believe that the planned Performing Arts Center will be an important addition to the community, providing a much needed resource and central location for the arts in Federal Way.
The Federal Way Mirror wrote a nice review of the event, restating of what the PACC will mean to the community. Thanks to all the kind words and support! Read about it here.

Improvisation and Musicianship Masterclass at Todd Beamer HS
I had a blast working with the Todd Beamer HS Jazz bands this past Wednesday! Stephen Kennedy has a great music program there and some very talented young musicians. We worked on improvising, solos and musical expression. I am honored to have had the opportunity to share music with you guys!
I will be appearing at other schools in Federal Way and the Seattle-Tacoma areas the near future and hopefully I'll be back at Beamer soon!
You guys Rocked!!!
Mother's Day Concert at the Rhododendron Species Garden
What a wonderful weekend playing for the Rhododendron Species Botanical Garden "Mother's Day Weekend in the Garden" event at the Weyerhaeuser arboretum. The place was packed today as mothers and families came to enjoy the beautiful gardens and enjoy in the festivities. I hope mothers everywhere had a wonderful day today! I was even blessed to have my own mother come to the event and she was gifted a beautiful yellow flowered rhododendron plant by the society! I hope if I make it to 97 years old I will get stuff for free too!
There are more events to come... Stay tuned for more info!
Happy Mother's Day and best wishes to all!
