The Inspiration
My love for music began long before I discovered graphic design. In high school, I was deeply involved in wind ensemble, jazz band, and marching band, with the baritone sax as my primary instrument. The joy of exploring different instruments inspired me to create Saxophone Simplified—a way of paying it forward to upcoming musicians in unfortunate circumstances.
Since the COVID-19 pandemic, a sudden emphasis has been placed on virtual educational tools. Saxophone Simplified attempts to address this concern by supporting young saxophone players on their path to becoming talented musicians—anytime, anywhere.
