MB Leadership

Hello! My name is Lauren Allen, I am the drum major for the 2020-21 Livermore High School Marching Band, and principal flutist in our Symphonic Band. I became interested in becoming a drum major in 7th grade at Christensen Middle School (go Cougars!) and have helped aspiring drum majors ever since! Musically, I began playing piano at age 6, flute at 10, piccolo at 13, and guitar at 16. Not only have I learned music through band class, but also through dance. I began dancing at age 3 and continue to up until this very day! When I’m not playing an instrument or dancing, my time is spent going to Disneyland, playing games with my family, shopping, watching spacewalks and history shows with my dad, and playing with my dogs. I am so honored and humbled to be a leader and a part of the leadership team for our marching band and take it very seriously. Even during these challenging times, our team is going to do everything in our power to make sure that everyone has the most enjoyable and memorable experience possible. Go Cowboys!

My name is Jared Bielski. I am a senior at LHS who has played in the Concert, Symphonic, Jazz, Marching, and Pep Band. I have been part of the Tri-M and LHS Symphonic Orchestra clubs. I play the bass clarinet, alto and bari-sax, and the EWI (electronic wind instrument.) Some of my favorite musicians who I love listening to are Ronnie Cuber, George Gershwin, and Earl Grant. As a Winds Manager, my tasks are to help the various wind groups with tracking weekly sectionals for each instrumental group, supporting section leader if they need coverage, identifying and working with individuals who need a little extra support, and reporting back to Mr. Enright on the musical health of the winds groups. I will learn the entire score of the fall march so that I can offer knowledge and advice to any woodwind or brass musician in need. Music is a passion of mine and I cannot wait to share my knowledge of the various programs, encourage others to do their best when playing and practicing, and mentoring the students so they become the outstanding musicians this music program knows we can become.

Hey everyone! I’m Sandra Diaz and I was chosen to be the flute section leader for this marching season. I’ve been playing the flute since I was in eighth grade which ,ade me a bit behind in experience but I’ve really tried to make it up with consistent hard work. After high school, I personally don’t believe college would be the best choice at least right away so I’m considering joining the Air Force reserves and beginning my technical training as a financial manager and comptroller.
