carobae

In seventh grade, carobae’s teacher asked the class what profession they’d prefer as adults. There were the firemen, presumably, maybe a dancer or two. But it was carobae who had the clearest vision. At five-years-old she was playing the violin by ear (which made learning guitar and piano later a breeze). The 12-year-old knew nothing of entertainment, only that a career outside of the arts was “never an option.” When carobae’s turn to speak arrived, she was unshakably self-assured: “Music producer,” she responded with certainty.
