Best Thing About Perfect 10: Working with musicians who all just click effortlessly with each other both within and outside of the music.
Hidden Talent: I learned how to rap during the pandemic just for the fun of it. I also learned how to back pretty well.
Greatest Accomplishment: The loud whistle. Which requires two fingers and a lot of air.
Most Rewarding Musical Experience: The first time I got to hear my own composition performed by real people when I was in the 7th grade. At the time, I was just excited that my orchestra teacher and my classmates were open to playing my music, but I had no idea just how much that would shape my understanding of composition, orchestration and my love for the craft.
