As a devoted chamber musician, Goosby has worked with Laurie Smukler, Areta Zhulla, Don Weilerstein, Itzhak Perlman, Takács Quartet, Juilliard Quartet Steve Tennenbaum, Sam Rhodes, and Brentano Quartet. He is a founding member of the BECA Quartet, based at the Juilliard School. They have performed nationally, at the California Festival in collaboration with Kris Bowers, and WQXR at the Greene Space.
Goosby has played in masterclasses for David Requrio, Martti Rousi, Luis Claret, Zlatomir Fung, Alan Stepanaky, and Zvi Plesser. In addition to being an avid performer, Goosby is passionate about teaching. He teaches at the Third Street School of Music, and has been involved with community engagement projects around the city such as monthly visits to Mt.

In April of 2025, Miles will be collaborating with the Iris Collective alongside his brother, Randall Goosby, to work with young music students and perform in their hometown of Memphis, Tennessee.
