Greetings! I have been up to quite a bit since Minnesota Varsity. However, the most memorable experience was winning first place in the open division at the Minnesota State Fair Talent Contest this past summer. It was an incredible blessing. I am currently studying music and business here at Luther College. Participating in Minnesota Varsity gave me such an all-around wonderful experience. It was an entirely new level of professionalism and artistic sophistication. I have taken the things I've learned from the Minnesota Varsity competition and have become a better musician. I don't know what the future holds in terms of my career, but I do know that performing is something I can't live without.
