Profile Information

About me:: Tryin to make it happen : )

What does music mean to you?: So many roles...teacher, friend, mother, father

Why is the music-based service movement important to you?: music is an underutilized strategy for positively transforming lives and communities. It's a low-cost, high-impact, fun intervention for human, organizational and societal challenges...it's very important to me that we support this work and spread the word.

Musical Interests: Composition, Performance, Promotion, Theory, Listening Appreciation

Musical Expertise: Percussion, Piano, Vocal

Where I serve:: I'm based at MNS Headquarters in San Francisco, CA, but will serve wherever I can.

My service mission:: Serve and Protect Music National Service.

Music Saves Lives.

Everyone Deserves Music.

Everyone Can Serve.
