About
I have been playing music for as long as I can remember, as my dad is a classical pianist so there was always music in the house growing up. I started playing the cello right before I started high school, and I decided to pursue music professionally in my senior year. I went to the University of Louisville in Kentucky for my Bachelor’s degree, and I am currently pursuing my Master’s in music at DePaul University. I am able to play any genre of music, and I love having the opportunity to bring something special to your event!
