Hello! My name is Sage, I’m the co-teacher for our Music Immersion classes. I am currently a student at UCM, studying Music Education. I’ve been involved with music for as long as I can remember– I first joined choir at age 8, and orchestra at 10. My primary instrument is the viola, with almost 10 years under my belt! I currently play with UCM’s University Symphony Orchestra. I have also been a part of multiple concerts with the Sedalia Symphony Orchestra. I started working with MA&M early Fall 2025. 

I grew up and went to school in Sedalia, MO. I graduated from Smith-Cotton High School in May of 2025. I was a devoted member of our orchestra program for eight years, as well as a member of the varsity show choir and other auditioned choirs. I received the National School Orchestra Award, the highest achievement a high-school orchestra student can achieve. 

Music really is my whole life, and I cannot overstate how thrilled I am to be able to share it with your students! I look forward to another amazing semester at MA&M. I hope you are, too– we’ve got a lot of fun planned!
