For much of my education since middle school, music has been a way for me to express myself and have a great opportunity to connect with more people. Both individually and as a whole, it is a great way to build on so many of the traits that make us human. Because of this, everyone should have the chance to explore music even if they cannot afford it.

For my National Honors Society senior project, I aim to raise money for the Save the Music Foundation, which donates instruments, provides teachers, and advocates for music education in all areas.
