This summer at Opera in the Ozarks has been transformative. Performing Blonde and Amy has been amazing, but my favorite part was the amazing people I spent my summer with.

Thank you to all of the faculty that continued to help each of us grow up until the day we left.

So many memories with amazing and beautiful people. You all are my inspiration and will always have a place in my heart. I cherished being your Schaunard, Benoit, Alcindoro, and Professor Bhaer. I would like to say thank you to the Music staff for bringing the best out of the singers and their tireless efforts making the productions phenomenal. I can easily say that my voice has never been better and it is all thanks to them. Until the next time
