Epsilon Zeta Chapter
Raised in Doylestown, Pennsylvania by her parents, Alyson has thankfully survived the antics and tortures of her older brother. Her �dabbling� in music began at the young and sprightly age of 4 with Suzuki Piano. Instantly she fell in love! Along with studying piano for 14 years, Alyson has seriously studied the oboe for 8 years and voice for 6 years and still going.
Through out her primary and secondary education Alyson has been extremely involved with many school ensembles. Yes, Alyson is a self proclaimed band geek! She has played piano in jazz bands, oboe in school concert bands and orchestras and district band and orchestras. She has played in over 6 pit orchestras, and played mallet percussion in Central Bucks High School West�s Marching Bucks. Alyson has sung in many select choirs which allowed her to perform at the White House, Carnegie Hall, Boscov�s Philadelphia Thanksgiving Day Parade and many cathedrals in the metropolitan area. Her choir experience includes premiering numerous choral works throughout the metropolitan area as well.
Community based experience includes the Youth Orchestra and Wind Ensembles of Bucks County, Curtis Settlement School in Philadelphia, and soloing and performing in the many ensembles at Lenape Valley Presbyterian Church.
Although Alyson�s life is filled with music, her interests expand far beyond. In her �spare time� (as rare as it is), Alyson was extremely involved at The Boston Conservatory. She served as a Resident Assistant, a member of Student Government Association, and The Tent (The Boston Conservatory�s Christian Fellowship). Alyson also writes poetry, watercolors, needlepoints, enjoys working out, skiing, going to folk festivals, concerts and is an activist against starvation imagery in the media.
Alyson�s hopes and dreams for her career include becoming a music therapist, an oratorio vocalist, a music educator, a special education teacher and a certified Alexander Technique instructor. She also hopes to get a Ph.D. in theology. Personally, Alyson desires to travel the world (possibly as a missionary), marry and have children, write a best seller, become a fluent signer, and be happy and joyous for no apparent reason.
Random facts: favorite movie is The Princess Bride, favorite book is Tuck Everlasting, favorite food is anything that includes chocolate and favorite colors are purple and green.
