What would you like to say to your performing arts teachers/directors?

Over my past 6 years at Knoch, I’ve had 3 different directors who have made such a huge impact on my skills, and on my character. My apologies for never letting you guys fix my bow hold, it is finally getting better.

What would you like to say to your parents?

Thank you guys for supporting me the whole way through my life and putting up with my horrible screeching when I was first learning to play. Also, a giant thank you to my Grandma who has always pushed me to be the player I’ve become.

What would you like to say to your performing arts peers, either specifically or as a whole?

Over the years I’ve had the privilege of playing with some amazingly talented students. Thank you to those who have helped me along the way.

Advice for underclassmen?

Please stop doing TikTok dances in the back of the classroom.
