I work in the IT department and our school district is using technology to help with our World-Class Education. I am part of setting up events for our Superintendent Dr. Fagen who brings in renowned speakers on Education in the 21st century. My kids are in our schools so I'm also interested from a parents viewpoint and so I actively look at innovation in education which seems to be quite exciting.
I also look at 21st education from a musical background and how music and arts can be maintained in our schools. It's seems as if we are loosing a huge part of this in comparison to when I grew up and was in band and majored in music ed at the University of Colorado.
My hope is we can provide an outlet for our young musicians to grow in music and music technology and recording, even if it is something like providing a Musical YMCA. This can be a place where kids who are not interested sports but thrive in music can go and have access to the type of instruments, recording gear and 21st century instruction that schools are not providing anymore.
I'm a musician, IT infrastructure engineer, parent, and love innovation.
