I've been performing for over 15 years as a musician and composer. A Baritone, I studied vocal performance, under Glenn Siebert, at the University of North Carolina School of the Arts. I've performed with the Piedmont Opera, and composed works for the stage, feature length film, and short film. I began my musical career in Raleigh, NC, where I took the stage as a show choir performer, before becoming a member of the Sanderson High School Sandpipers. I helped lead under Director Marshall Butler to win national competitions in Orlando and New Orleans, and also sang as a soloist at the Cathedral of Saint John the Divine in New York City. At UNCSA I performed the title role of Signor Deluso in 2010, and also learned the roles of Count Almaviva in Le Nozze Di Figaro, and Guglielmo in Cosi Fan Tutte. I've also played in productions such as Street Scene, Dont Drink the Water, The Devil and Kate, Il Mondo Della Luna, L'elisir D'amore, Maria Stuarda, and Turandot. I have been living and working in Winston-Salem for 6 years.
Instruments:
I am an aspiring trumpet performer looking to continue my education in this field through private study and teaching. In May, 2015, I graduated from Furman University with a Bachelor of Music degree in Trumpet Performance. Since then I have been performing in weddings and local performances as I temporarily settle in Durham, NC. My goal is to become a professor of music with a focus in classical trumpet performance. I've had the opportunity to perform with many ensembles in the past four years in varying capacities and difficulties.
Instruments:
I grew up surrounded by music, theatre, sports and teaching; Mom was a music major, her instrument was piano, and Dad was a theatre major (who went to college on a football scholarship) and he played the drums. My earliest memories are of Mom playing the piano, Dad drumming, and me dancing all over the living room. I have been singing since I could talk and I started taking piano lessons around the age of 6. I was in choir and band all throughout middle/high school and went to college unsure if I wanted to focus on music or theatre. I was very active in both departments and continued to take private piano and voice lessons but theatre won out and my primary focus changed to scenic painting. However, music remains a huge part of my life. I love that no matter where I am or who I am with music brings people together in a way that nothing else can. I have seen that first hand on mission trips, in the classroom, and in my daily life.
Instruments:
I love teaching private lessons! I have taught elementary music in the public school system for many years, and find that many techniques and strategies I use in a group setting are also wonderful to use in the individual private lesson. I am dynamic and energetic - my philosophy is that learning should be FUN! In addition to teaching elementary music, I am also a church choir director, While most of my time and energy is related to teaching and sharing music, I also find time to work out, hike, and cook.
