Selected Projects 20<strong>16</strong>-<strong>18</strong><br />
My four years at the University of Massachusetts<br />
Dartmouth have been a personal artistic journey–a<br />
journey of self-examination, developing <strong>no</strong>t only as<br />
a musician but as an in<strong>no</strong>vator and a researcher.<br />
Throughout this journey I have constantly asked myself:<br />
Who am I as an artist? What should I do to find<br />
my own unique, creative voice? These are, of course,<br />
never ending questions. But for <strong>no</strong>w I can say that<br />
being at UMD’s Music Department has given me a<br />
foundation to pursue a career in music that is more<br />
than just a performer. It is a career that is combined<br />
with research and in<strong>no</strong>vation.<br />

Every senior music student is required to put on a<br />
recital to showcase what they have accomplished<br />
in their time at the university. As an ho<strong>no</strong>rs student,<br />
I knew I had to aim for something more ambitious.<br />
Therefore, I decided to put together a group of <strong>no</strong>t<br />
only my peers, but of professional musicians and<br />
one of my Professors. The group includes current<br />
