To continue with our #YAAPlaysOn movement, we have asked several of our alumni to share news about themselves, their time at YAA and how they continue to “play on” despite these unexpected circumstances.

What have you been up to?

I graduated from Boston Conservatory in May 2019. I recently finished an internship with The Kennedy Center and Washington National Opera. There I was working with the WNO Domingo-Cafritz Young Artist Program. Now I’m working for Washington Concert Opera as their Special Events Intern. I am also singing with Potomac Vocal Institute’s Professional Development Program!

Tell us about something you learned at YAA that you apply to your life today.

YAA taught me how to be professional. From the little things like bringing a pencil to rehearsal to learning music quickly to working with high profile guest artists.
