I have the most experience performing for funerals and weddings, but I have performed at events of all kinds. Check out my gallery or my Instagram for some photos from some of the events I have played at over the years! Throughout the course of my piping career, I have been fortunate enough to receive instruction from some of the most influential authorities on piping. I also serve as an instructor for students of various levels. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/60d6ab799186392146856cfc/89193840-728f-4100-b4c5-ba8a9834ec2e/redding-solo-competition.JPG About - Solo Competition I am a WUSPBA-registered Grade 2 solo competitor and have competed in hundreds of piping competitions throughout the US since I began competing around 2009. I still continue to actively compete whenever I can find the opportunity, though officially sanctioned competitions are less abundant in the region.

By 2017, I had achieved the rank of Pipe Major, a title I held for 7 years, during which time the band competed and placed in Grade 5 competitions. I currently compete with the Clan Gordon Pipe Band, and play with the Boise Highlanders and the Caldwell Police Pipe Bands.
