Summary
I am a driven and hungry student who has built up as much experience as possible in the time that I have had a passion for music. I have picked up as many skills as I possibly can in my road to where i am now and have gladly soaked up all the information my teachers and peers have given to me. When a task or goal is set I dedicate myself to, it such as when I taught myself to become proficient on the upright bass in 3 months in preparation for a well respected summer jazz program. I am more than capable and willing to comprehend all that is set in front of me.
