Musician, educator, advocate of music and the brain, founder Music Therapy Gateway In Communications, Inc. Google my two TED talks to learn some #musicscience.
My new book is going to be published with a release date of March 2026! "Trevor the Noteable GOAT" is about a 5th grader with autism who discovers music and it changes his life.
Here's an original music video that gives an overview of Trevor's story. www.youtube.com/watch?v=jL6P... #autism #music

Very much looking forward to presenting a talk at the TEDxAnchorage 2025 event on August 15th. I'm always so grateful to be able to talk about the wonderful benefits of #musictherapy and #musicscience.

Sweet Gracie crossed the bridge 3 years ago today. She came to us in 2019 from a situation where she'd been badly abused. We loved her dearly and were gut-punched when she got lymphoma. I created this musical tribute for her a few days after she passed in 2022. www.youtube.com/watch?v=CGJx...

My first TED talk was given 9 years ago today. For those interested in #musicscience and seeing how music can truly be an option as a non-pharmacological therapeutic solution for those with motor, speech, or cognition challenges, please consider watching: www.youtube.com/watch?v=wCM4...
