At age 12, she was the youngest wind player ever admitted to the Curtis Institute of Music, where she received her bachelor’s degree studying with Julius Baker and Jeffrey Khaner. She was the youngest wind player ever to win the Young Concert Artists International Auditions. She is the founder and artistic director of the Dolce Suono Chamber Music Concert Series in Philadelphia.
