How did I find myself loving band and sports at the college level? ⁣
⁣
Well, I’ve always been an athlete since middle school. I did track & field, basketball, and water polo. I gained an interest in music when I was in 7th grade. I didn’t know what to do as a new percussionist. It was a rough year and in 8th grade, I developed my technique with lots of coordination and patience. ⁣
⁣
Throughout high school, I played bassoon my sophomore year and tenor sax my junior year. Up to now I still play but not as often as I did before. My interests in both activities geared me to photography because I enjoy the fluidity but also the adrenaline that comes with it. ⁣
⁣
I ended up loving band and sports in college because it’s a different feeling compared to high school band and sports. I didn’t really have much collaboration with other groups at school but at ISU impart of so many awesome teams's that I know will keep on my feet. I put effort into my work because I know later on in life it will pay off.⁣
⁣
I cant wait to see what this year unfolds. ⁣
