Welcome

Welcome to my site. I’m a pianist for ballet, a researcher, slightly obsessed with IT some of the time.

I’ve had this blog for 17 years. The further back you go, the more pointless and random the posts become, so I don’t recommend it. More lately, I’ve focused more on the work of making music for ballet.
