His research interests include human creativity (particularly musical creativity) and online teaching/learning. In addition to his scholarly activities, he has experience as a gigging and recording musician, a composer/arranger/songwriter, a large ensemble conductor/director, a music director for musical theater productions, and a performing musician on various instruments including percussion/drums, piano, trumpet, and the iPad.
He believes all people are innately musicians and as such, to answer the question "What is Music?" is to answer fundamental questions about what it is to be human.
