About

I ann passionate about story telling and making classical music accessible for everyone. I love connecting with the audience and going off their energy. Originally from the suburbs of Philadelphia, I grew up with a musical family, my dad playing cello, mom piano, and brothers trumpet and saxophone. I enjoyed my undergrad at Temple University, majoring in Violin Performance and Music Education. I had fun dabbling in jazz violin and submerging myself in the vibrant art scene that Philly had to offer. I taught High School Orchestra for two years in Philly; I loved my students and they inspire me to this day. I continued my studies at Carnegie Mellon University receiving my Masters in Violin Performance this past spring. I am grateful for the support I’ve had, and excited to now be in NYC!
