I selected flute as my first instrument in 4th grade and played in concert band up until high school. As a PhD student, I picked up flute playing in graduate school in a new context: jazz! I was part of the small jazz ensemble at the University of California at Santa Cruz. We played in concert each quarter! Since graduating from UCSC, I now play flute for the Watsonville Community Band (WCB) and Saint John Vianney Catholic Parish. Check out our shows below!
