She also composed for their concert at Timucua Arts foundation in Orlando Florida, for the composer’s forum premiere concert, “A Sinking Ship is Still a Ship” In 2020. Her original composition, “Sun Shower Fantasy” was arranged and performed with The Orlando City Arts Project at Harriet’s Ballet for the Re:Charge event during the pandemic in August 2020, where each guest had their private floorspace to lay out and enjoy the music coming from the center of the room.
