🎹 “One of the very first viral Mario videos was of a pianist playing the Mario theme blindfolded.” — YouTube Official Blog
Super Mario Medley — a viral, influential video that “started a very interesting internet phenomenon” (Project COE).

Classically trained pianist with degrees from the University of Southern California, Yale, and the Cleveland Institute of Music. I’ve performed video game music in 16 countries, blending virtuosic performance with nostalgia, storytelling, and deep musicality.
