I Am Maestro Riko
Artist, producer, thought leader, program architect, facilitator, researcher and the public-facing creative force behind I Am Maestro LLC.
One practice, expressed across many rooms.
His work moves between music production and live performance, facilitated listening and reflection, elder and memory-care engagement, youth and family programming, reentry and workforce development, research, writing and cultural preservation.
The throughline is a belief that arts are forms of human technology: ways communities carry memory, regulate rhythm, teach identity, create relationship and imagine what comes next.
