Process Over Product
For my project, I will be delving into the world of process, untying myself from the need to produce an end product. Seeing as I have performance experience, and have worked for 10 years as a professional theatre artist, I will be using the generous resources allotted to us to really step back into my training as a musician. I will be working with coaches, teachers and mentors to continue my growth in the opera and classical music world with the full artistry I have come to know in my theatre career. I am so grateful for this opportunity and the guidance the faculty has given me.
