Me!

Okay, so you want to know about me.

Are you sure?

Well, let's see......

I adore singing (almost) more than anything. I sing at my school, and I'm in the Early Vocal Training program at the New England Conservatory, where I take voice lessons, theory class, masterclasses, chamber choirs, etc. My voice teacher at NEC is Clara Sandler. I also sing at NEMC. My teacher at camp is Jackie Kimpel. Both of them are wonderful people and great teachers.

I also play the cello and piano.

I have a cat named Noel, who is very cute but "dimensionally challenged." He's also insane, which is nothing out of the ordinary in my family.

I like to spend a lot of time reading, watching movies and listening to music (click here).

I've been doing Districts and ACDA choruses and All State (more examples of my adoration for singing).
