12 year old me speed walked the halls of my middle school for 5th period music class.

Up to that point, elementary school was home to many of my “canon events” in my formative years. It’s where I got drawn to art, where I performed in my one and only musical (lowkey theatre kid… it was Grease 😋). I always felt compelled to express myself. But that day? That day changed everything.

As I approached the music room, I heard the school kit reverberate the hallway. I never heard one up close, so I HAD to locate its origins. The moment I set foot in that room, the kick drum shook my core, the snare exhaled the air out of my lungs. I was resuscitated. I was far too shy to dance back then, but in that moment? I was CLOSE.

I had never played an instrument before, but somehow… I knew exactly what life had planned for me. Music has given me every blessing I have. It mentored me, nurtured me, and shaped me into who I am. My biggest hope is to become that same spark of inspiration, for you 💚
