Fúm/About Me

I’m a Brooklyn based music educator at the secondary/high school level (string orchestra director) and have been a pro/semi-pro double bass player for over 20 years.  I’m also kept busy by helping raise my 5 year old daughter and 8 year old son.  Hobbies include running, roasting coffee and firing up the grill.  I very recently travelled to Ireland (Limerick, Glendalough and Dublin) and was fascinated by the Irish language, so I thought I’d give a shot at learning it myself.
