Profile Information

About me:: Hi! My name is Meagan Hughes. I am a Board Certified Music Therapist and Teaching Artist, specializing in voice, guitar, piano and West African percussion. I have served a wide variety of populations, including at-risk communities, terminally ill patients, and children with autism. I have a BM in Music Therapy from the University of Minnesota, and trained at Langley Porter Psychiatric Hospital and Clinics in San Francisco, CA.

What does music mean to you?: Music has been a part of my life since my earliest memories and continues to pervade and convey my thoughts and feelings in a more acute way at times than I can strive to communicate through other avenues.

Why is the music-based service movement important to you?: A forum to connect those around the country (and world!) who are passionate about music and service has the potential to elevate so many others in the process.

Musical Interests: Performance, Listening Appreciation

Musical Expertise: String, Piano, Vocal

Where I serve:: UCSF Child Life Dept. (SF Unified School District hospital classrooms for inpatient and outpatient child populations), Laguna Honda Hospital

My service mission:: Deliver Music Therapy services and music instruction to chronically/terminally ill child and adult patients (1:1, small group, classroom); Performances for hidden audiences (hospitals, shelters, etc.); Implement community service projects with SF Unified School District youth serving UCSF and Laguna Honda.
