Wendy Tang grew up in Great Falls, Virginia, where she started playing the flute at the age of 10. In high school, she played in her school's band and orchestra programs, the American Youth Philharmonic Orchestras, and in honor ensembles, such as District Band, All-State Band & Orchestra, and Senior Regional Orchestra. She has also performed at the Kennedy Center and with the Fairfax Symphony Orchestra. Through these experiences, Wendy realized the extent to which music can inspire a community, and she wants to continue to inspire a wider audience through her craft. At UVa, Wendy plays with the Cavalier Marching Band, the UVa Wind Ensemble, the Charlottesville Symphony Orchestra, and studies flute under Kelly Sulick. She plans to double major in Economics and Computer Science. Wendy is extremely grateful and honored to be a Miller Arts Scholar and hopes to take advantage of this opportunity to expand the influence of the arts by bringing music to those who do not have easy access to it.
