Annie is an accomplished flutist, garnering prizes and awards through competitions throughout her life. Because of her extensive experience being a soloist and performing with a multitude of instrumentalists, she has the unique ability to connect, direct, and inspire the performances she envisions for her scores. Her roots with the orchestra have given her an edge to create colorful orchestrations and a deeply powerful sound for each ensemble she works with. Although the orchestral realm comes naturally to her, she is highly skilled in creating a hybrid of both organic and synthetic sounds to tell a meaningful and supportive story, catered for each individual project she scores. She is also known for her ability to write themes that are thought-provoking, memorable, and timeless.
