Siri Hammond
Administrative Assistant

Siri grew up in Pullman, Washington, where she studied the violin, ballet, and classical voice, and played and sang in school and private music ensembles. Her lifelong involvement in music, dance and theater led her to pursue a B.A. in Theater at St. Olaf College in Northfield, MN, where she continued to study voice and performed in theater and dance productions. In addition to her work with Givens Violins, Siri teaches dance and pursues her career as a performing artist. She has appeared onstage with Artistry, Old Log Theater, Paul Bunyan Playhouse, Zephyr Theatre, Nimbus Theater, and numerous other local and regional companies.
