A 2014 run of solo shows at New York’s Metropolitan Room earned her a career-launching rave review in The New York Times, followed by a second Times rave for a run of shows at Feinstein’s/54 Below in 2015. That same year she was chosen for the U.S. State Department’s “American Music Abroad” program for which she has performed and taught throughout Eastern Europe, the Middle East, Southeast Asia and South America.
