earlier this year, i started just writing pieces that i wanted to write & that i’d want to read and posted them to substack. it’s been really good for me creatively, and getting to use my musicology tools is always a plus.

this is what i published this week:

hi! finally decided to jump ship over there and join bluesky!

i'm a pgh native, but i did my master's degree in musicology at the university of edinburgh. i'm primarily interested in popular music studies, but also interested in lots of other things like fandom, internet culture, & irish history.
