Over the course of this year, I have grown exceptionally as a leader in musicianship. I served my band as a section leader for the alto saxophones in both classical and jazz bands, but I also was nominated to be one of 16 people in Pennsylvania to be part of the Pennsylvania Music Educators Association Future Music Educators Symposium. This amazing opportunity allowed me to be able to have an insight into what it is like to be a leader in music education. Overall, I am ecstatic to learn more and continue to develop my leadership and musicianship at the Ohio State University, and have already began to do so!
