What do you love most about your job?
I love connecting with others through music -- lighting up their day and creating a special and memorable experience. From general background playing to an intensely choreographed moment, I am so grateful to create a live soundtrack that encourages people to be present and joyful!
What inspired you to start your own business?
Though I'm classically trained (two degrees in cello performance!), I've also grown up always itching to think outside the box.... From a young age, I was using my "voice" (cello) to sit-in with alternative genres and projects that had me playing rock, folk, metal and more! I love to collaborate and have a talent for design and customer experience, so blazing my own trail as a versatile solo artist/collaborator was a no brainer! :)
Why should our clients choose you?
I am excited to bring your ideas to life and can flex on many details (song choice, level of spectacle, dress/costume, etc) that customize a truly special and unique performance to fit your goals and vision!
