About

I'm a recent 2016 graduate of Furman University. There I majored in music education and studied flute. I was involved in numerous musical ensembles such as the Paladin Regiment, the Symphonic Band, the Wind Ensemble, the Symphony Orchestra, the Women's Chorale, and a woodwind chamber ensemble. I am part of Phi Eta Sigma Honor Society, Pi Kappa Lambda Honor Society, and Kappa Delta Pi Honor Society. Outside of my academics, I am a published writer with poetry appearing in three different poetry anthologies. In 2014, I published my first full length book of poetry titled SPEECH OF THE MASQUERADE. In the fall, I will be pursuing my Masters degree in music education at Boston University.
