Graduate of the University of Michigan. Music is the language that unites us and helps us understand one another as well as share the amazing gifts that music, sounds, nature, and human experiences provide us.In my free time away from the regular day time, I write and participant in Climate Change activism because I want my children and grandchildren to have a fighting chance for the disasters that lie ahead. Another reason we need music.
