My Story

My purpose on this earth is to create music and to share it with others, in whatever ways I am able.

I started playing piano at the age of one (my mom is a pianist) and started formal violin lessons at the age of two. In the fourth grade, I had my first lead role singing on stage. Through my childhood I studied, performed, and competed in various piano, vocal (classical and theatre), and violin events.

I attended the University of Maryland, Baltimore County and obtained degrees in piano performance (chamber music concentration) and vocal performance (opera concentration) as well as Computer Engineering. There, I was incredibly lucky to study piano with Dr. Audrey Andrist and Dr. Daniel Pesca, and voice with Janice Jackson. During my time at UMBC, I fell in love with chamber and collaborative music, performing around the Baltimore area with various chamber ensembles and in various opera roles.

Right after college, I performed as a pianist with the Columbia Orchestra and as a freelance vocalist and pianist at prestigious venues throughout the DC/Baltimore area, including Merriweather Post Pavilion. In addition, I was honored to work as a computer engineer at NASA Goddard Space Flight Center supporting various projects including the James Webb Space Telescope.

I moved to the panhandle of Florida in 2024 and have become established as a highly sought-after vocalist, and a fixture in the local Florida Panhandle music scene, leveraging my expertise as a music director to lead several successful productions. In the summer of 2024 I started my Masters in Music at Berklee College of Music. In addition to graduate school, I am also a resident artist at SOWAL House. When not studying and practicing, I dedicate my creative energy to my jazz collective, Sundrop Rose, and The Midnight Muses band, a musical project I co-founded with the incredible Teresa Lombardi.

In this season of life, I’m looking for all kinds of opportunities - from playing Margaritaville at a beach bar to singing Sinatra at jazz brunch to performing chamber music in a concert hall.
