Showing results for "Me" in Music

My story is rooted in personal and professional development and this first installment represents a small sample of topics, which have had relevance during my career but also help the listeners better understand who I am as a person and professional. This is the first installment of the book, and I have additional books planned, which will delve into a variety of topics I experienced as a teacher. My hope is that others will process the information not as a how-to guide but rather as an opportunity to gain insight into the profession as well as my unique perspective.
