What Happens in Vegas . . . was written in 2019 for Michelle Gott. It was inspired by video game music. There is a lively tune that emerges and repeats, but the piece uses the whole register of the harp, and a wide variety of sounds and techniques.

What Happens in Vegas . . . was premiered on April 11, 2024 by Juliette Sinnott in Freiman Hall at the University of Ottawa. It was subsequently performed by Michelle Gott at the Ottawa New Music Festival on October 18, 2024. The following link is to that performance:
