Dhara provided amazing violin string music to my wedding on May 31, 2026. She was thorough at coordinating her music with the cello player and knew timing for the perfect bridal walk out moment. That is a moment I will never forget! Thank you Dhara!

Her career spans international touring, high-profile collaborations with artists such as Jeezy and Gucci Mane, and participation in a Guinness World Record–breaking performance.
