So sorry I’ve dropped the ball on this takeover!!! To make up for it, here’s a collage of things I’ve been up to/things that have been on my mind 😇. 1st pic, the finished product of our Jack-O-Lantern!!! 🎃 2nd, me and my bf in our Halloween costumes 🙃 3rd pic, some yummy homemade soft pretzels (I am obsessed with baking) 😋🥨, and the 4th pic is the first page of my teacher’s copy of the Sibelius. She has me take pics of all her music so I can copy the bowings (wow my phone really really wants to autocorrect that to Boeing’s 😅). Thank you so much for all of your support this week! It’s time for me to say goodnight! Next week, our flautist @krisztinader 🙏❄️🕊

#tbt to sprit week at school! I thought this pic of me in my pj’s could be appropriate for today cause it’s Halloween 🎃👻. One of my teaching jobs is actually not music related—I work with toddlers and preschoolers at a Montessori-based school! I love working with the little ones, helping them grow to be good humans and teaching them to have a love for learning 🤓🍎 . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . #montessori #toddler #preschool #kindergarten #musicteacher #greenhills #pajamaday #spiritweek #teacher #school

One of my favorite freelance gigs is musical theater. If I can’t be on the stage, being in the pit is the next best thing. Right now I’m doing a local run of Bright Star, a musical by Steve Martin based on a true story! I highly suggest checking it out, it’s a fantastic story with very catchy music 🎭🎻 . . . . . . . . . #brightstarmusical #brightstar #freelance #freelancemusician #musiciansofinstagram #musicaltheatre #violin #violinist #pitmusician #fiddle #stevemartin

On busy days like today I like to try and sneak in just a little bit of free time to sit and get organized! Up until now I’ve either been in class or teaching or running errands. Now I’m about to do some more Russian Music History reading...swipe to see this week’s topic 🎼🎹🎻 . . . . . . . . . #shostakovich #russianmusic #russianmusichistory #starbucks #psl #calendar #organization #coffee #coffeeislife #music #violin #study #studyingabroad

This post brought to you from Music Row! Sometimes I have the pleasure of recording some of the video games, commercials, and other various orchestral music that gets scored here! . . . . . . . #violin #violinist #sessionmusician #musicrow #recording #sightreading #musiciansofinstagram #nashville #musiccity

And for tonight- fiddling on a cruise ship! Country music. ✨✨✨ (One of my favorites parts of my work (aside from the music itself) is the variety from day to day! I crave it.) 🦋-R

Unloading the Christmas wreaths and warm scarves and cinnamon spice candles— Nashville has gotten mighty chilly and I had my first Christmas gig of the season earlier this week (playing violin in a music video for a CCM group) so I guess I’ll justify that giving me permission. 💁🏻♀️ (And perhaps I shall bake a pie!) -🦋R
