A Harmonious Upbringing
Smyrna's story begins in Goa, where her schooling at Sharada Mandir provided the foundation for a lifetime of opportunity. Raised in a household where music was a constant companion, Smyrna's parents instilled in her a love for the art form. Although they hadn't had the chance to learn an instrument themselves, they were determined to provide Smyrna and her brother with every resource to nurture their musical talents.
Smyrna, not content with just listening, embarked on a musical journey of her own. She honed her skills on the keyboard and the violin. Recently, she added the bass guitar to her repertoire, further expanding her musical horizons.
The Joy of Giving Back
However, Smyrna's talents extend beyond the realm of music. Guided by her family's values and the principles instilled by her church, she learned the profound importance of giving. The act of giving, especially in challenging circumstances, became evident during the COVID-19 pandemic. Witnessing countless compassionate individuals stepping up to support their communities, whether healthcare workers or food distributors, stirred Smyrna's desire to make a difference.
