I started with the youth symphony when I was in 10th grade. It was nice because there were quite a few people from where I went to school way down in Homestead (South Dade Sr. High; Anthony, Evan, Sara, Faye, Andrew, and my sisters Lori and Debbie), boy that was a long drive every Sunday to Miami Shores, lol. Anyway, I started out on violin my first year or so with the symphony, then Mrs. Hahn approached me to start playing the viola. So I did. ๐ The people that I want to send a shout out to are: my South Dade clan, also Mrs. Hahn, Mr. Walters, Alex Miglio, Gio Garcia, Alina Matusow, and Jouvanca Jean-Baptiste (I miss you girl!! BEATLES #1!!). Thanks for the good times and awesome memories!!๐
