Après des études à la Mannes School of Music et à la Juilliard School, elle commence une carrière de guitariste et de joueuse de mandoline auprès du Metropolitan Opera et de l'orchestre philharmonique de New York. Elle commence à diriger et reçoit plusieurs prix de direction d'orchestre.
Elle a dirigé l'orchestre symphonique de Virginie, avant d'être nommée directrice musicale de l'orchestre philharmonique de Buffalo en 1998, devenant la première femme à la tête d'un grand orchestre américain avant Marin Alsop.
