Her musical method draws from folk, classical, songwriting, theory, ensemble work, improvisation and pop music using a Salzedo-influenced method. In 2015, Monica became a Certified Clinical Musician, playing therapeutic harp in hospitals and hospices. Her book of sheet music, “Songs of Hildegard von Bingen for Harp” was published by Mel Bay Publications in 2024.
