“Outside of VCO, I love to express myself through painting, cooking, and fashion. I also enjoy reading, long walks, and making Pinterest boards.”

“I have always loved music. Before I could play the cello, I’d poorly dance my way through songs and listen to iTunes over and over again. Outside of music, I am a passionate sports fan and gym goer. Many of my weekends are spent watching games on television or checking the ESPN app. When I’m not following a sporting match or practicing the cello, you can find me in the VADL lab, hanging out with my friends, or procrastinating my homework.”

“Outside of VCO in Vandy, I am also active in HFTE, InterAxon, and a lab researching Alzheimer’s disease! Outside of Vandy, I love food and coffee shop hunting, museums, and vinyl collecting :D”

“I like exploring new cafes with friends and crocheting. I enjoy performing on weekends with members of Harmonies for the Elderly (aka HFTE) and will be on exec board for BCBSA this fall. Also pre-med!”

“Outside of VCO and other musical activities like playing the piano and guitar, I enjoy swimming, traveling, and reading.”

“Besides practicing cello, I love hiking outdoors, talking sports, and writing stories. As a Nashville native, I love showing off my city to other Vandy students!”

​“Outside of orchestra, I love to play pickup basketball, cook, and watch baseball. I am also a part of a  prostate cancer research lab at VUMC and perform therapeutic music for patients in the ICU!”

​“Outside of my musical interests of performing and composing, I also enjoy drawing and language learning! I love spending my time creating and consuming art, whether musical or otherwise.”

​“Outside of VCO, I love to watch sports like soccer and football, play board games, and learn languages. On campus I am also part of VUcept, the club swim team, and enjoy conducting research in the LOR3 lab at VUMC. Feel free to say hello if you see me around campus!”

​“Outside of VCO, I am a member of Harmonies for the Elderly where I play piano at retirement homes in Nashville. I spend my free time hanging out with friends, reading, running, and playing board games!”

“Outside of VCO, I enjoy trying on clothes I can’t afford, trying new restaurants in the Nashville area, and playing card games!”
