I play mainly percussion and guitar, but I also knew how to play the piano and viola when I was younger. I have been playing as a percussionist and guitarist since about fifth grade, and those are my two instruments of choice. I have even influenced my younger brother to take up learning the drums. I played as a Percussionist as part of my School's Honors Wind Ensemble.

As part of my sending school’s pep band (SHS), we would play at the football games in the freezing cold. Despite the fact I could not feel my feet, I felt it was a great bonding experience along with the opportunity of being able to take a multi-day trip to NYC for a few clinics, to watch Aladdin on Broadway, and to catch a glimpse of the New York Pops. I am grateful for all the memories and connections I have made through Band.
