With a 4.0 GPA and a passion for music, Mallory combines academic excellence with extraordinary artistry. Now in her second year as the OPUS Student Conductor, she leads by example, inspiring her peers through her talent, dedication, and leadership.
For five consecutive years, Mallory has been selected for the Florida All-State Honors Choir. She was recently recognized as one of the top 25 sopranos in Florida for her sight-reading skills, earning a place in the prestigious Florida Reading Chorus. She has also achieved Superior ratings at both district and state Solo & Ensemble competitions, most recently earning a Superior with Distinction at State Solo & Ensemble.
A versatile performer, Mallory regularly performs the national anthem at local sporting events and has sung with the Treasure Coast Community Singers for the past four years. She also made history as the first Martin County student ever accepted into the Palm Beach Opera Studio. Now in her second year with the program, she continues to refine her craft while gaining hands-on experience in the world of opera.
Her repertoire already includes major choral works such as Trotta’s Magnificat, Bach’s Magnificat, Forrest’s Requiem for the Living, and Handel’s Messiah. This season, she will appear as a soprano soloist in Mendelssohn’s Hymn of Praise with the Treasure Coast Chamber Singers and Orchestra, as well as the luminous Pie Jesu from Fauré’s Requiem.
Beyond her school and community commitments, Mallory also serves as a section leader in Divisi, a nonprofit choir made up of high school musicians from across Florida. This season, she will be featured as a soloist in Moses Hogan’s powerful arrangement of I Want Jesus to Walk with Me, showcasing her classical training and expressive voice.
Mallory’s impressive achievements are a testament to her hard work, talent, and the support of her teachers and community. She continues to set the bar high for what it means to be a Martin County Tiger.
