Happy New Year, everybody.
Big news here: in 2025, I moved to France. I received an artist visa, packed up my things, and moved to Paris on July 4th. There’s way too much to say about all of this for a single social media post, but I want to share that this is all very good and very happy news. I feel incredibly fortunate to be exploring the Labyrinth project here and am filled with gratitude and love and all that good stuff:)
If you need to reach me, please use WhatsApp (my U.S. number still works there, just not for SMS), or send me a message through Instagram or Facebook.
Come visit!
A few silly pictures from Paris life below. More to come in 2026. 💛 🇫🇷

The @labyrinth_of_limitations channel got a little spring in its step this week, going from 260 followers to over 2k in just 2 days.
Don’t wanna sound hokey or hackneyed, but I am so overfilled with allll the gratitude. Getting to do this work has made this the happiest time. Psyched to continue forward.
I got all jazzed up and made this YouTube vid about finding color, using a fundamental concept from Barry Harris. Many graphics and pretty sounds therein. I got a little goofy with the intro filters -couldn’t resist, ham that I am.
Head over to the Labyrinth of Limitations YouTube channel for the full video (link in bio for @labyrinth_of_limitations )

More pretty endings!
I posted a PDF on my Patreon for this one that explains some of why this works so well. It’s all grounded in what Barry Harris called “family”, which is a deep concept with far-reaching implications.
Links for my Patreon course and private lessons are on my bio:)

Hope ya’ll don’t mind me sharing all this stuff from my Labyrinth of Limitations project. It’s just so much fun, and I’m really grateful for how it’s growing. Patreon makes these little clips of content, and I thought this one was nice (all about the “algorithmic guitar” concepts I teach and use for my own improvisation)
