I am a violinist from Kansas City, Missouri, and a graduate of Lincoln College Preparatory Academy. In Fall 2025, I will begin my studies in Music Education at the University of Missouri–Kansas City Conservatory, where I will continue my journey in artistry. I have served as Concertmaster for Harmony Project KC and Lincoln Prep’s orchestra for multiple years and am a student of Reilly Mitchell and Can Balcik. I have performed with the All-District Orchestra and earned numerous Gold Ratings at the Solo and Ensemble Festival. I have also had the opportunity to perform with and learn from many renowned musicians, such as Yo-Yo Ma, Jordan Bak, and the band Making Movies. As I am passionate about teaching and mentorship, I plan to pursue a Ph.D. in Music Education and become a high school orchestra director. I wants to inspire future generations as I was inspired by my teachers and mentors.
