My Students

Since I graduated from CHS in 2012, there have been 4 different program directors. The students who stayed have persevered and remained dedicated to their craft despite the turnover in leadership.

They are a passionate, hard-working, and deeply community-oriented group of individuals from all walks of life.

I want nothing more than to help them develop and flourish as people and musicians, but I need your help to give our students the tools to fulfill their dreams and goals.

My Project

My project looks to upgrade the percussion equipment my students have available to them in order to allow them a better opportunity to prepare for and give school performances. Having equipment that is up to date is important to assume that my students have a meaningful experience that will better prepare them for the demands of collegiate musicianship. the various auxiliary percussion outlined in this project description represent intruments that CHS either doesn't have access to, or desperately needs to replace in order to provide our band students with an authentic band experience.
