About Us
I love music; it has been my escape and dream world. In school, the nuns discovered I could sing because I sang all the time. Joining the youth choir at church was delightful. In junior high and high school, I sang in the school choir.
Athletics was my choice in high school even though I still managed to remain in the choir. My college years were spent involving myself in sports, dancing, and cheerleading.
My career of choice was to become a physical education teacher, but my interest in music never waned. I loved working with children and through the years it's been heartbreaking to watch how music was removed from the curriculum, leaving a huge void in some communities.
Music in some communities is not being explored and many children only have the opportunity to hear only one type of music. My idea is to create a hands-on museum to give children at an early age a chance to explore all types of music.
I envision a museum where kids can listen and explore all genres of music, thereby giving young people the chance to hear many genres of music. It's my hope and dream to create a space for learning, fun, and exploration.”
