My connection with NCMS began more than 15 years ago when my twins embarked on several years of private lessons and ensemble participation. I am proud to be a part of a treasured organization that is remaining steadfast in their mission and addressing the needs of the community with musical excellence and innovation.

Watching my daughter grow as a musician and performer at NCMS showed me the transformative power of accessible music education. I joined this board because I believe every child deserves the opportunity to discover confidence, belonging, and joy through music. NCMS's mission is to make that a reality for all and I'm thrilled to help them open those doors for everyone in our community.

Music is a source of joy in our home; in fact, my husband and I met through our college marching band! We support the Nashua Community Music School because we know first-hand the value music has brought to our lives and the positive impact it can have for all.

NCMS has been a part of my life since my daughter was a student taking her first voice lessons. Now she is passing her knowledge on to the next generation of NCMS students, and I am so happy to see them grow as musicians under her tutelage. I joined the board as a way to give back to the school that has given her so much, and I continue to serve to help further the mission and give everyone an opportunity to pursue their passion for music.

I joined the board of NCMS because I am a student and therefore have seen firsthand the quality of music education and wonderfully supportive environment the school provides. Whether you’re a kid or an adult student, trying music for the first time or reviving a former passion, NCMS is a place that fosters creativity and self-confidence.

Music is a universal language that transcends all levels of humanity. I want to be a bridge between access and opportunities to unify people in the communities.
