Favorite Spot on Campus: King Concert Hall. It is such a big beautiful space to make music in. I’ve performed over 40 concerts, 2 of which were operas in the clarinet section, and a complete mix of band, orchestra and choral concerts. Getting the opportunity to play solo in that space is so empowering and enriching hearing your musical sound fill the hall.

Fredonia has opened doors for me in unexpected ways. I entered in 2018 with a love for music and teaching, but doubted my ability to be a performer as well. Now, as a graduate clarinet performance major, I have put on 4 successful recitals and am auditioning for professional orchestras while working towards my teaching certification. This incredible journey is all thanks to Fredonia's amazing teachers and uplifting community that believed in me. Their support has allowed me to pursue both my passions of performing and teaching.
