Performance (violin/viola, ensemble)
I offer live violin and viola performances for concerts, events, and private occasions, ranging from intimate settings to larger productions.In addition to traditional performance, I incorporate live electronics, using looping, effects, and amplification to create immersive and dynamic sound environments when desired.I can perform solo or assemble ensembles (duos, trios, or larger groups) depending on the needs of the event.Available from concerts and weddings to interdisciplinary projects and creative collaborations.

Creative / Website work
I design and build artist websites that are clear, expressive, and tailored to each creator’s identity.My work goes beyond layout; I approach each site as a form of creative direction, shaping how an artist’s work is experienced online.Recent projects include platforms for ArtIs and MBODY, where I developed visual language, structure, and user experience to reflect each project’s vision.What I Offer:
Basic artist portfolio websites (like this one)
