Kristi Snyder’s musical journey began at the age of 4, performing in church and exploring her passion for music through piano and composition.

Her extensive experience includes serving as an Assistant Choral Director, a piano accompanist for high schools, and a keyboardist for musicals. One of her most cherished experiences was performing Beethoven’s 9th Symphony with the Fresno Philharmonic Orchestra.
