Thank you for taking the time to review my application for the 2027 Student Composer Internship! Below I’ve included selected performances and scores to give a sense of the music I write. Listen to as much or little as you’d like, but if you’re short on time, I recommend focusing on the first three works (“I”, Maximal Minutia, and Pinky Promise).
