After a successful career in NY, Rose decided to move to Boston to attend the North Bennett Street School where she studied violin making for 3 years. Upon graduating she founded The Chatham Fiddle Company where she teaches, makes and repairs instruments and runs a boutique concert series featuring some of the finest talent from

the celtic music genre. Rose performs throughout the Northeast and recently at Gaelic Roots, Boston College,
