“I have been playing the trumpet in band for seven years and four years in the marching band. The first memory I have of band is bringing my trumpet on the first day back in sixth grade, then finding out I didn’t need it until the second week. My favorite memory was becoming horn line captain in last year’s show, Land of the Free. My biggest supporter through my music career is my grandfather. I mean, considering he did buy all of my instruments and all, I’d say that’s a pretty big deal. In 2014, I played chimes in the 20th anniversary show Just Listen for the Tunstall Concert Ensemble. I also play trumpet in my church orchestra at Fairveiw United Methodist Church. This is my first year in that orchestra. I would never think about quitting. [The advice I would give] is to practice!”
