ABOUT
ME!

Welcome!
here's a little about me (she/her/hers):
I grew up in Needham, MA (just outside of Boston) and currently reside in Madison, WI. Although, I work with 4k through 8th Grade students in Lake Geneva, WI at a wonderful school called Traver- teaching general music, saxophone, clarinet, trombone, flute, violin, vocal percussion, and of course trumpet. I've trained extensively in jazz, classical, and musical theatre and additionally love collaboration with acapella and beatboxing.
Current inspirational sounds include Tank and the Bangas, Amber Mark, and Sammy Rae and Friends.​
