While based in the New England and New York areas, she has performed in Japan, Turkey, Canada, and on many occasions in Korea including at the Jarasum International Jazz Festival. My most memorable gig was performing there in 2009, leading a group that also included Dave Liebman, Terri Lyne Carrington, and John Lockwood. Coming back home, I felt very happy that I had succeeded at my goal of becoming a jazz pianist; it felt wonderful. Among the many venues in which she has performed in the United States have been Jazz At Lincoln Center, Birdland, the Iridium, Ryles Jazz Club, the Beantown Jazz Festival, the Smithsonian Museum, and with Benny Golson at Wellesley College. Other notables with whom she has performed include bassists James Genus and Lonnie Plaxico, drummers Ralph Peterson Jr, Yoron Israel and Nasheet Waits, trombonist Robin Eubanks, and saxophonists George Garzone and Ronnie Laws.All GA sections (Main Floor GA & Miles Davis Mezzanine) will be seated by host and are first come, first served (other than where a reserved sign is posted to table).
