Gabriella's passion for music began when she discovered a love for playing the piano at the age of five. Gabriella taught herself to play instruments by ear, playing music she frequently heard her mother play on the radio. Gabriella developed an interest in writing her own music throughout elementary school. Gabriella began taking piano lessons at the age of eight and later developed an interest in playing the saxophone, making it  her primary focus. Today, Gabriella is an active performer in the Denver area, as a co-founder of the band People In Between. Gabriella is also actively involved in the creation and performance of her own music. Gabriella's music is currently being featured in the Chicago based film Ahyoka River.  In addition to her passion for playing both classical and jazz music, you can find Gabriella teaching private lessons out of her studio at West Colfax Music Academy in Lakewood Colorado.  Gabriella received  primary instruction under Tom Myer and  secondary instruction under Dr. J Michael-Weiss-Holmes, Dr. Geof Bradfield, and Aiden Maniligod.
