Q. What made you want to become an assistant band director?

A. I had the most amazing experience in my high school band program. This inspired me to go to Indiana State    University and get a degree in Music Education. I taught elementary general music until last year, which I enjoyed, but I’ve always been a band kid at heart. I am so excited to get the opportunity to teach band at Roncalli and the South Deanery schools!

Q. Why did you start the middle school band night?
