About

I play the Flute and Piccolo and am a Instrumental Music Education K-12 Major at Winona State University, Winona, MN. Originally from the Minneapolis suburbs. I enjoy being involved in many different activities academic and non-academic related. I spend a great deal of time with my family (Mom, Dad, Grandpa, and older brother) when I'm not living at school. I want to travel and learn about education and music in other countries as well as learn about their cultures.
