About Gabriel

Expertise
I am able to volunteer my expertise in music composition, music theory, and songwriting. NOTE: I am *not* able to offer expertise in singing; AllExperts.com still hasn't separated "singing" from this category (it does not belong here). I answer a variety of questions. I have multiple music degrees and years of experience in the field. When asking your question: 1. Please be clear in your message. 2. Provide actual question(s). 3. Please keep it short and concise. 4. Save my one-question-per-day for someone else if you can find the answer on your own.

Experience
15 years professional experience.

Education/Credentials
BME, BM, MM, ABD on DMA.
