“Music is a vehicle that provokes a creative mind and can give you the confidence to believe in yourself. It’s enabled me to do things I never thought I could and it’s my personal passion to help others reap the same rewards from music.”

“If you can play video games, you can play an instrument. Just how you learn to press the right buttons at the right time for games, an instrument is essentially the same but with a different device. With some experienced guidance and the willingness to try, I KNOW music’s benefits are accessible and achievable for all.”
