Biography

Waverly Alexander is a freshman at Milton High School. She began studying the Suzuki method of violin at the age of three under the tutelage of Ms. Marina Dmitriyev. She chose to play the violin because of the powerful and elegant sound that could be created by such a small instrument. Waverly has always loved music and the violin, being the smallest of stringed instruments allows to have to have her to have full command. Four years later, she enrolled in the William Pu Music Academy under the tutelage of Mr. Patrick Ryan. Waverly is entering her 5th year in the Talent Development Program. She's had the pleasure of working with Ms. Carolyn Hancock for the past four years, and she has recently transitioned to working with Mr. Bob Anemone of the Atlanta Symphony Orchestra.
