About

I love everything fine arts, but I particularly love music. Instrumental and vocal (choral) music are my primary passions, and I plan to pursue them in my undergraduate and graduate studies for many years. My main focus is music composition. I love all things music theory---I am currently enrolled in AP Music Theory at my high school, and it is easily my favorite period of the day. When I'm not practicing, auditioning or performing, I enjoy spending my time volunteering to foster and take care of the stray cats of Faulkner County, Arkansas. I've loved cats ever since I was a baby, and I adore being able to nurture them in my own home back to health and see them sent off happily to their forever homes.
