Santa Rosa Symphony Youth Ensembles - Cellist, Composer 2015-2021

As a cellist: I attended regular rehearsals and performances, collaborated with other performers,
and continuously improved my skills, as well as auditioning regularly for placement and feedback.
Most recently in the Santa Rosa Symphony Youth Orchestra and Young People’s Chamber
Orchestra.
As a composer: In the Young People’s Chamber Orchestra, I composed a piece for string ensemble
which was then played by the ensemble in early 2020. For this, I had to network with my mentors
and peers, edit and revise the score as we developed the piece in rehearsals, provide insight and
feedback about the piece to my fellow musicians, and introduce the piece at its premiere on
February 29th, 2020.

As an actor, I served as a performer in the show, which involved attending rehearsals and recording
