She is from North Carolina and like many other composers, including Mozart and Beethoven, her first teacher was a parent (Mother). She began playing the violin at two years old and composed her first music at ten!
Interesting fact: Kanye West has used her music on one of his albums.
Here are some more examples (they are really interesting):
String Quartet
Music in Common Time (very beautiful music)
Its Motion Keeps (music for children's choir)
