Claire is currently a member of the Middleton Community Orchestra and the brand-new Madison Gamer Symphony Orchestra, and she has performed with the Lake Geneva Symphony Orchestra and Symphony 847- a semi-professional group based in her native state of Illinois.
Claire currently studies chamber music with Suzanne Beia and is a member of the Harper Quartet, which has performed for public events such as the Magnum Opus Ballet Company. Her current musical interests include orchestral performance, historical performance, and pedagogy- which she fosters with her budding private studio.
