Inspirations as a musician: I love sitting in the violin section and being surrounded by the sound of the entire orchestra. For me, there's nothing like the goosebumps I experience during a particularly powerful passage of a piece as it's happening all around me. I also really enjoy all of the soaring melodies I get to play as a first violinist.
Favorite thing to do in Cincinnati: I walk a lot so I appreciate being able to do so while taking in the beautiful parks and interesting old buildings in the city.
Fun fact about Rebecca: I'm a closet soprano.
