When folks ask me how long I’ve been playing, I hesitate to answer. Surely by now I should have perfected my craft. Correct? Not exactly. Older musicians have the challenge of maintaining their skills. But we also have the advantage of experience and the skill set to maneuver through various environments and situations. Hopefully we know how to connect with our audience, treat others well, take care of ourselves, as well as protect our work. Older artists also have the ability to help others, especially those younger, to come into their own. We can advocate for others as well as ourselves. I have not mastered any of these concepts, but I am intentionally pursuing them. 
 

My 25 year public school teaching career has come to a close. I will always love my students and colleagues. But I know it’s  time to let someone else step up and continue the work. I also know that I will continue to find ways to advocate for underserved children. 

Speaking of advocacy, Check out the work of the Greensboro Arts Hub . I'm so excited to help promoate area artists.  Please take a moment to check us out.
