After I graduated from Binghamton University- aka leaving professor Aldridge- I thought I would never love again.

But guess what!! My love was revived after I entered Mannes School of Music, because my new teacher Lynne Rogers is absolutely fantastic!

This was our first lesson – I found a moth in her office, and literally grabbed it with my bare hands and threw it out. I’m usually nowhere near this brave, but hey, anything for her!
