Describe a musical experience or teacher that had a positive impact on you.

My percussion professor at UW-Parkside was someone who constantly supported me and pushed me to be my best. He also encouraged me to create my own path as an artist. He inspires me as an educator and performer and my goal is to be that kind of mentor to my students.
