Kami (brunette) plays violin, piano, marimba, mandolin, drums and percussion. Formal violin training began at the age of three. At six years old she began classical piano and, not long after, picked up the mandolin, drums, marimba, and percussion. She is also a competitive ballroom dancer. Because of outstanding academic achievement, Kami was one of 40 students from across the nation invited to participate on an international mission of music in Europe. She traveled to Brazil to participate in the World Percussion Project, studying with some of Brazil's top music instructors and performers. She and her sister, Kara, were featured percussionists in a performance with Estacio de Sa Samba School (Rio de Janeiro's first and oldest samba school) were they also marched in the Bonfim Festival. Being a registered Suzuki violin teacher, Kami teaches violin and is actively involved with the Suzuki Association of the Americas. Having been bitten by the travel bug, Kami is always up for a good adventure. From paragliding in Brazil to snowmobiling in the Arctic Circle, she loves to do it all! |
