Music

I enjoy music of many varieties and genres -- not only listening to music, but also playing the oboe and singing. A growing passion in music, for me, is Early Music. I have sung Renaissance and Baroque vocal music with the Duke University Collegium Musicum and the University of Virginia Early Music Vocal Ensemble.

I have also played baroque oboe in the University of Virginia Baroque Orchestra and chamber music on the modern oboe in the Bach's Lunch series at Hampden-Sydney College.

My Favorite Early Music Ensembles

• Opera Lafayette
• Zephyrus
• The Orchestra of the 18th-Century
• Tafelmusik

Other Interests

I enjoy learning languages, both ancient and modern.
