What to expect

When working with me, you can expect a clear, supportive, and professional experience from start to finish. I prioritize prompt communication, transparent pricing, and a smooth booking process so you always know what to expect.

Musically, I come prepared, flexible, and attentive to your needs—whether that means collaborating on repertoire, adapting to your event’s flow, or coordinating with other musicians and staff. My goal is to provide dependable, high-quality performances while making the process feel easy, organized, and personal.

About

I'm currently a junior at Kansas State University majoring in music performance (percussion, collaborative piano, organ) and minoring in business. At K-State, I am a member of "The Pride of Wildcat Land" marching band, wind ensemble, and percussion ensemble. I also serve as the treasurer for the K-State Percussive Arts Society and as a member of the collaborative pianist team for the School of Music, Theatre, and Dance. One of my proudest accomplishments at K-State is being a member of the Akadiddles Percussion Trio along with two of my closest friends.
Outside of school, I play piano and organ for two churches: Peace Lutheran in Manhattan and First Presbyterian in Junction City. I've also recently started teaching piano lessons at Inner Forte Music School. On the business side, I work as an office aid and front of house staff for McCain Auditorium.
Besides music, I love to crochet, bake, go on walks, build Legos, and spoil my cat.
