Danita spent majority of her youth in Chicago. She dreamed of being a musician since her childhood and fondly remembers wanting to form a band with her twin sister in the fourth grade. Her middle name ‘Joy’ says a lot about her desire to bring joy to many through the gift of music.

Her first encounter with music was her sophomore year at Dwight D. Eisenhower high school, where she I took a class on the history of rock and roll and learned about the guitar. This class led her to join the Prep Band where she expanded her knowledge on percussion instruments. After that fire in her was ignited, she joined her high school orchestra program where she learned to play violin.

She is excited about being able to share what she's learned throughout the years and even more grateful to serve as a teacher with Artfinix Studios's 'Little Prodigy’s' program.
