Leah played violin on the record. She describes herself as a part-time freelance violinist, full-time microbiologist. This only makes sense when you find out that she studied both Molecular Genetics and Violin Performance at OSU.

It quickly stops making sense when you realize that she studied both Molecular Genetics and Violin at the same time.

And she’s apparently great at both! I can vouch for the violin. I can’t provide any personal evidence on the microbiology front - but she works for OSU - so I’m assuming she’s killing it.

She also plays violin in OSU’s new Janus String Quartet alongside Mark Rudoff (OSU cello Professor), Nancy Nehring (viola), and Devin Copfer (violin, who also played on the record).

On studio day, she mentioned that she’d never done a non-classical session before our day in the studio - but would do it again if we ever needed. I’ve never done a microbiology session ever!

Thank you, Leah! Thanks for the great session and being an inspiring example of someone with a rich and diverse life. Go bucks.
