Meet Molly Trueman:
Molly, a rising sophomore at Princeton, plans on majoring in music with a potential certificate in Applications of Computing. Outside of class, she is part of Glee Club, Chamber Choir, and the Tigressions, a contemporary all-female a cappella group. While she has been practicing voice and piano since age 6, within the past year—especially during quarantine—she has become more passionate about songwriting and music production, leading her to create music for this podcast.
