QUOTES
“Music school was challenging, I don’t think I was emotionally prepared for the things I was going to encounter there.”
“At music school, the prospect of having to make money and win auditions changed things for me.”
“At grad school I started falling even more out of love with music.”
“If somebody left the (music) program, to pursue something else, there was a shame thing. I saw that and absorbed that for so long”
“The way (music) lets me see the world and the way that I appreciate connections between different fields.. gives me fresh eyes.”
“There was so much pain associated with music that I knew I needed a big break.”
“I was in bad shape, I thought I had nothing to offer. But that wasn’t true at all.”
Trust that you really do have valuable experience that can translate to other career paths, even if they're unconventional and you can’t see them.”
