This recital is dedicated to my Grandmother, Priscilla Rosin, and to the memory of my Grandfather, Warren Rosin. Warren was a devoted family man, teacher, principal, and coach. He cared greatly for his friends and family and always pushed them to be the best possible versions of themselves, especially when it came to me and singing. To this day, my grandma, Priscilla (who was once a singer herself), always encourages me to sing, and is a big reason, along with my parents and sister, as to why I chose to pursue a singing career. As a child, some of my fondest memories include my grandparents taking part in the joys of singing; my grandpa bursting into the bedroom and singing us cousins awake to the tune of “Good Morning” from Singing in the Rain, and my grandma playing her old records and humming the tunes throughout the house as she cooked and cleaned. I would like to thank every one of my voice instructors for helping me to grow into the singer and performer that I am today. I would also like to thank my friends for believing in me and encouraging me to do what I love. Finally, I would like to thank my mom, dad, and sister Rachel. There are no words to describe how grateful I am for all that you have done for me over the years. Without your endless love, guidance, and support, I would not be where I am today. Thank you simply isn’t enough.

Fine Arts at Carthage acknowledges that the land on which our building stands is part of the traditional Potawatomi, Sioux, Peoria, Kickapoo, and Miami peoples past, present, and future. These homelands reside along the southwest shores of Michigami, North America’s largest system of freshwater lakes. We honor with gratitude the land itself, and the people who have stewarded it throughout the generations. Many Indigenous peoples thrive in this place—alive and strong, andthis calls us to commit to continuing to learn how to be better stewards of the land we inhabit as well.
