What's New
January, 2010 - Happy New Year! There are two new songs to start off the year. The first is a woodwind quintet arrangement of Alicia Keys' "Empire State of Mind - part II." Please check the Pop Arrangements section to listen! The second is a semi-original composition (the theme is partly based on a short demo clip from my old Yamaha keyboard) for flute, oboe, violin, and piano. It is called "For You" and is dedicated to my boyfriend. This year is sure to bring more exciting things. I am starting a new job this month so please be a little patient with expecting site updates! :-)
December, 2009 - I wrote an original song (music and lyrics) to honor a friend we lost this year. Look for "All You Could Have Been" in the Original Compositions section.
November, 2009 - Three new songs have been added to the music page! Check out "Be With Her," an original upbeat pop song; "Lament," a sacred chamber piece with lyrics and music by my great-grandfather; and "Shadows," a piano piece from my great-grandfather.
September, 2009 - My Bloomer Park trail map is featured on the Michigan Mountain Biking Association (MMBA) website!
