Short biography and a description of your interest(s) in music and health: 
I am a retired business professional who is now in the process of obtaining a degree and starting a new career in music therapy. Through my education I am finding an affinity towards the impact of music on the health of our aging population. I am especially interested in how music improves the health and quality of life for individuals with Alzheimer's Disease as well as those requiring palliative care and/or are in hospice care.
Collaboration Interests: 
I am interested in collaborating with anyone in the medical field who is interested in the therapeutic aspects of music and how we can all work together to positively impact the lives of patients/clients.
