SEEKING
Band to Join.ABOUT
A longtime musician/pianist. Classically trained. Reads music. Capable of playing by ear. Play and sing 20+ years. Baptist church roots. Former praise and worship leader, choir member (community, school and church). Lead soloist. Constructing/creating musical arrangements. Piano instructor (3 years).
Music is a huge part of who I am but I have somehow always prioritized other life trajectories (academics, marriage and motherhood). I feel compelled to confront, reconnect and rediscover my identity as a musician. This part of my story feels so important and yet so unfinished. I look forward to whatever becomes of this step forward.
