Kaitlin’s journey with the harp began at the age of three when she first heard its enchanting sound featured in an interview on the bonus features to a children’s film. Now an active musician and teacher residing in the Los Angeles area, she delights in sharing her love of this instrument with her community through orchestral, chamber, and solo performances. She is also an avid new music supporter and often collaborates with composers to premiere new works for the harp.

Kaitlin has performed with esteemed ensembles such as the Los Angeles Chamber Orchestra, Pacific Symphony, and American Youth Symphony. Her accolades include the 2019 American Harp Society Scholarship Competition, the 2020 Anne Adams Awards, and the 2024 Frances Walton Competition (chamber ensemble division), as well as fellowships at the Music Academy of the West in 2022 and 2023. Distinguished as the Young Professional Division winner of the AHS National Competition, Kaitlin currently serves as their Concert Artist for 2023-2025, enabling her to share her artistry through nationwide masterclasses and harp recitals.

She earned a bachelor's degree in music theory and harp performance from the University of North Texas with Dr. Jaymee Haefner, and a master’s degree from the University of Southern California with JoAnn Turovsky, where she is continuing to pursue a Doctorate in Musical Arts. When not performing, you can find Kaitlin either connecting with nature, enjoying the beach, or spending time with loved ones at a local coffee shop.
