This photo was taken recently to use as a headshot for my new music teaching position as a KinderFlute teacher at the University of South Carolina. The past year has been extremely difficult as many people told me that the job market would be horrible for musicians, and I would have to think outside of the box to make it in the music world. I defied the odds and was able to secure a dream job working with young students. I have also had to work exceptionally hard in my Masters degree in Flute Performance as COVID has changed many things about traditional music study, such as changing weekly lessons to an online platform. I was able to power through this difficulty and make the best of it.
