Describe your favorite Berklee experience so far.

My favorite experience at Berklee was getting to perform alongside friends and design live art elements for my own show at the Loft.

When you think about your favorite class so far, what is one example of why you enjoyed it?

My favorite class at Berklee was a Studio Band recording ensemble that challenged me to be a better musician, allowed me to record weekly in Berklee's state-of-the-art studios, and led to my second single release.

What is your favorite part about studying and living in Boston?

My favorite part about living in Boston is getting to explore the culturally rich city and find live music venues to listen and perform at.

What is one piece of advice you would give to someone applying to Berklee College of Music/Boston Conservatory at Berklee?

One piece of advice I would give is to make friends with everyone you meet because you can learn so much from playing with other musicians and the friendship could lead to a potential collaboration and you could make beautiful music together!

Where is your favorite place on campus?

921 6th floor admissions office during my on-campus job!

Why did you choose Berklee?

I chose Berklee because it was the only school that enabled me to take a major like professional music where I could study multiple concentrations in one major, such as songwriting, production, and music therapy.

What are your plans for after graduation?

I plan to move to New York and work as a songwriter/topliner for myself and other people.

What have you enjoyed most about the live shows you've been involved in at Berklee?

I love the community live shows bring together and how positive and uplifting peers are when supporting one another's shows.

Where do you hope to perform this coming year?

I hope to perform at the BPC, the Red Room, and local places around Boston!!
