Tell me the story of when you first discovered your instrument of choice.
I first discovered the harp when my mom was playing CDs for me as a toddler and I ended up fixating on the “wrong” instrument. My mom’s dream was for me to play bassoon, but instead, I chose a differently complex instrument as a four year old. After begging for a harp for a few years, my parents finally decided to get a really small lever harp to see how I liked it and the rest is history!
What are your hobbies/interests outside of the music world?
I love baking, reading, hiking, and snuggling with my two cats, Oliver and Matilda.
Your playlist recap is here…who is your most listened-to artist?
This year, I’ve listened to a lot of Olivia Dean, The LaFontaines, and Ezra Collective.
