MEMBERS

Chloe Zhou (President/Tour Manager)
When Chloe walks into a room full of people, the average height decreases by five inches. In addition to being the shortest member of Low Strung, Chloe is known for kicking innocent doors and storing bodies in her cello case. Her favorite taste is tofu.

Henry Shapard (Music Director)
Henry is from Cleveland Heights, OH. He speaks French and Spanish and loves British comedy television shows. He enjoys lonely walks, milk, and ferocious dabbing. Henry has a twin sister who he looks up to in everything except being born- he got out first!

Sofia Checa (Business Manager)
When an 8-year-old Sofia was presented with the opportunity to learn a musical instrument, she chose cello via process of elimination-- the other choices were violin, viola and bass... it turned out to be quite a good choice! Sofia's goal in life is to be Princess Leia.

Allison Park (Publicity and Social Media Chair)
Allison is from Dunn Loring, VA, which is in Northern Virginia, not Southern Virginia. It is very important to her that you acknowledge the distinction. In addition to reading for pleasure and writing with smooth pens, Allison enjoys eating sushi, mentioning her dog at any and every opportunity, and wearing comfy pants. Also, she has an adorable dog. Did she mention that already?

Dayle Chung (Asst. Business Manager/Asst. Music Director)
Dayle is from New York, NY. She loves thunderstorms, Earl Grey tea, and sunrises (that is, if she can stay awake late enough to watch them). She can often be found at her favorite local 24-hour diner eating a cheeseburger.

Jerry Zhou
This is Jerry. Sometimes, though, his closest friends like to call him Jerry because that's his name. He's from Knoxville, TN, and his hobbies include photobombing, hiding from Homo sapiens, and sleeping at 3 ante meridiem.

Harry Doernberg
Born at a very young age, Harry knew that he was destined to play the silkiest instrument known to man. Unfortunately, there were no bagpipes available, so he chose the cello. Besides dressing in the dark, Harry enjoys eating, sleeping, and wrestling. He also enjoys working with ceramics.

Emily Cornett
Emily is from Baltimore, MD. She is a fan of Indian food, dolphins, and Canada. In her spare time, she listens to Drake and cries or Skypes with her cats.

Megan Lim
Megan has broken 37 endpins. Apart from attempting to play the cello, she enjoys broccoli and arson on rainy days. She is an alien without a visa and may be deported at any moment (there are places outside America, but do not mention this to anyone).

Dimitri Lippe
Dimitri is from Buffalo, NY. He is also known for being really good at playing viola. Dimitri befriends cats everywhere he goes, and his dream is that one day, a cat will join Low Strung.

Han-ah Sumner
Apart from playing the cello, Han-ah has a passion for knitting, avocado smoothies, and venn diagrams. She is the proud owner of a miniature black poodle named Licorice who she unfortunately could not bring with her to New Haven. Her all-time favorite movie is Clueless.

Max Lauring
In addition to talking to strangers, hiking, and playing soccer, Max enjoys cello, chess, and crosswords. Many a great man has admired Max for his eclectic yet simple fashion sense, one that consists of quirky shirts from Taiwan riddled with random English phrases and glow-in-the-dark boxers from American Eagle.
