began the harp as her third instrument at the age of

orchestral, music theater and ensemble player
throughout her teens and twenties. Her teachers
included Karen Miller, Christine Vivona, Caroll
McLaughlin and Marcella Decray. Today she is a
versatile player of many genres. In addition to
performing classical and contemporary music, her
