Bio

My goal is to become an orchestral viola player. I am seeking a strong undergraduate experience that will provide dynamic learning and performance environments. My mom is a widow, and I have two younger brothers who will go to college as well, so there are definitely some financial restraints on my family.

      At the beginning of the pandemic I told myself to walk at least once a day, and I’m grateful I stuck to it for the sake of my mental health and overall productivity as a graduating senior. Connecting to my neighborhood and the nature around me has allowed for me to stay focused on how I want to perform my music just through allowing my body to move. These pictures speak to me because they were all taken when I was at my most peaceful during my walk.
