She also teaches drum-set, percussion and piano lessons and studies country, classic rock, blues and pop music. 

          As a performer, Ms. Kopitske has gained experience in both live and studio settings. She has recorded many projects on drum-set, percussion, organ and piano in an array of styles. She composes her own instrumental piano music as well. Commonly compared to the late composer George Winston, she similarly writes in the style of new age-contemporary with a wide, uplifting, and ambient nature. She released her debut EP in 2018 entitled Unheard Of, a sophomore EP in 2021 entitled Pride & Joy, and a single in 2022 entitled “Losing Light” with a sync intended focus.

          Ms. Kopitske received her bachelor’s degree in music industry with an emphasis of music business at the University of Wisconsin-Oshkosh in May 2023.
