An avid traveler, flutist, and pianist, Liz Keller-Tripp was most recently Producer and Artistic Programs Director at Silkroad, the cross-cultural and cross-disciplinary organization founded by Yo-Yo Ma and noted for its renowned Silkroad Ensemble. There, Liz directed creative content development and logistical planning to produce international performance tours, residencies that meaningfully engage communities around the creation of new artistic work, and arts-based programs that stimulate collaboration with a broad variety of partners.

She also worked with G. Schirmer, Musica Sacra of New York, and Spoleto Festival USA after studying arts management and flute performance at Shenandoah Conservatory in Virginia.

Liz is a soccer fan, private pilot-in-training, and globetrotter, and enjoys every opportunity to venture abroad for professional and personal growth.
