Lydia Forkum

Lydia Forkum, a vocal music major from Scottsboro, Alabama, transferred to Lee University for its strong reputation as a top-tier music school and its Christ-centered community. She is actively involved in Lee Singers, LeeU Worship, and Chorale. Of her experiences, Lydia says Lee Singers holds a special place in her heart: “I thoroughly enjoy the challenging, eclectic music we perform and am delighted to travel with some of the most talented and kind people I’ve ever met.” Lydia is a Dean’s List student and plans to pursue a career in the music industry after graduation.
