How long have you played the guitar?
I've been playing guitar for about 6-7 years. I didn't get really serious about it until the end of middle school.
What other instruments do play?
My main instruments besides guitar are bass and drums. I dabble in a little bit of piano and I've been working on (re)learning saxophone and clarinet.
What ensembles have you been a part of?
As far as school ensembles go, just jazz band. But I've been a member of several student organized groups, as well as bands outside of school.
What's your favorite jazz band memory?
Definitely the whole Atlanta trip. I really loved the field trips because you got introduced to kids outside of your ensemble. I made some good lasting friendships with people whom I never would've thought I'd be close with.
What have been your favorite songs from each year?
Tiger of San Pedro
What is Hip
Such Sweet Thunder
Punta Del Soul
Anything else you'd like to share?
I had a really good time in the music department. There were some really talented folks that came and went, and I had some great times with everyone. I hope future generations get to have as much fun as I did.
