This is Me

About Me

I'm a 21-year old music composition major about to graduate. I've been composing since I was seven, but only seriously since I was sixteen.

I grew up in a musical household, playing piano since the age of three, flute, guitar, and bass since 14, harpsichord since 20, and singing all my life. I've been an active member in the choirs at my church since I was five, and school choirs since I was 13 (the first year my school had a choir). I sing primarily first soprano, but I'll sing alto on occasion, though it's not as much fun.

I hope you enjoy my music! Sadly, all these songs are demos right now because I have neither the money nor the time to record them professionally. I do all my recording on my computer. I use Finale 2007 and GarageBand on my eMac G4, and do all tracks/instruments/vocals myself.

If you have any questions, or would like a copy of any songs (plus more not listed on this site), feel free to drop me a line and I'll be happy to chat. =)
