I believe that music is meant to be a source of beauty and feeling, brought about by the harmony of the logical and emotional. Whatever I do, I strive to make it joyful, not only for the audience, but for myself. Though there have been and always will be difficulties and challenges, I strive to always focus on the love of the art by being optimistic, compassionate, and open to learning and correction. Making this my focus will not only make me a better musician, but also more positive person on the High Point University campus and in the world.
