ABOUT

Clara grew up in the woods near Portland, Maine in a family of classical musicians. She fell madly in love with fiddle music when she was 19 attending Maine Fiddle Camp for the first time. Clara minored in music and started playing the lever harp while earning her master’s degree in occupational therapy from the University of Southern Maine. She moved to the Berkshires in 2021.

Clara and her partner are currently looking to purchase their first home to be able to stay in southern Berkshire County. Any leads for an affordable home are appreciated.
