MARYLAND/DC BASED, BONNIE HAS BEEN A MASTER LEVEL PERFORMER FOR OVER 20 YEARS. SHE DISCOVERED THE GIFT OF MUSIC AS A CHILD, STARTING WITH VIOLIN. CONTINUING TO GROW IN HER ART, SHE SOUGHT MASTERY OF THE SAXOPHONE, FLUTE, AND CLARINET.

BONNIE ATTENDED PENN STATE UNIVERSITY AND THE UNIVERSITY OF MARYLAND, RECEIVING A BACHELOR OF MUSIC DEGREE IN PERFORMANCE AND A MASTER OF MUSIC DEGREE IN PERFORMANCE WITH A JAZZ EMPHASIS.

WITH PROFESSIONAL PERFORMANCE EXPERIENCE IN TOP TIER ORCHESTRAS AND BANDS, SHE HAS HELD SEVERAL LEADERSHIP POSITIONS, AND HAD THE FORTUNE OF TOURING AROUND THE WORLD (U.S. TO CHINA). THROUGH THESE PERFORMANCES, BONNIE HAS FOUND THE GREATEST VALUE OF PROFESSIONAL PERFORMING TO BE WITHIN THE MOMENTS OF CONNECTION… PERFORMER TO AUDIENCE MEMBERS… EVEN MUSICIAN TO MUSICIAN.

ALWAYS SEEKING NEW AVENUES IN WHICH TO SHARE THE LOVE OF MUSIC, BONNIE FOUNDED, LED, MANAGED AND PERFORMED IN A VARIETY OF BOTH LARGE AND CHAMBER-SIZED ENSEMBLES. CONJUNCTIVELY, SHE FORMED A PRIVATE LESSON STUDIO, TEACHING ROUGHLY 30 STUDENTS A WEEK.

CREATIVITY AND SELF-EXPRESSION ARE THE CENTRAL FOCUS AND MEANING BEHIND ALL OF BONNIE’S MUSICAL ENDEAVORS. THEY ARE THE ROOTS THAT LED HER INTO THE REALMS OF COMPOSITION AND SONGWRITING, WHERE INDIVIDUALISTIC PORTRAYALS OF FEELINGS ARE CREATED, ENCAPSULATED IN A MOMENT OF TIME, AND EXPANDED. THE INHERENTLY SOLOISTIC NATURE OF INDIVIDUAL EXPRESSION INVOLVED IN COMPOSING, SIMULTANEOUSLY RADIATES WITH THE COHESIVENESS OF CONGLOMERATIVE INSPIRATIONS. A SOLO VOICE… CREATED SINGULARLY, YET AN AMALGAMATION OF MANY. ALONE, BUT TOGETHER. SINGULAR, BUT UNIFIED.

BONNIE’S PRIMARY GOAL IS TO HELP OTHERS FIND THEIR VOICE THROUGH CREATIVITY, EXPRESSION, AND MUSIC.
