I have always felt the best way to describe me is hardworking. Since starting college, I have worked two jobs on top of being a full time student. I currently have one part time job, and one seasonal job to ensure I can continue attending university. My major is music therapy and I spend many hours practicing and studying. I chose this major because I enjoy the challenge that comes with learning music and I am passionate about advocating for those who need help mentally and emotionally. From a young age, I was curious about music. Notes and rhythms at the time was like a language I could not quite read, but I so badly wanted to understand. This influenced my decision to join band in the 6th grade. I remember spending my Saturday afternoons practicing, and staying in the band hall after school to practice. Throughout my time in school, my curiosity turned into a love for music and an appreciation for the discipline that comes along with being a musician. This passion for music is what influenced my decision to study music therapy and I began researching colleges towards the end of my senior year. There are currently only 4 colleges in the state of Texas with a music therapy program. None of which, are near my home. I was, and still am determined to become a music therapist, so I chose to leave home to follow my dream. I left everything I knew and moved 4 hours away from home to follow my passion and become a music therapist. I remember driving away from home excited, but also scared. This is my second year as a music therapy student, and I have recently started music therapy practicum at a nursing home. After my first practicum, I knew that all the hours I have had to work to stay in school, all the times I experienced homesickness, and all the hours I have spent in a practice room have been worth it. I have found I love music the most when I get to share songs and interact with others through music. My dream is to one day open my own private practice for music therapy and be an advocate for those struggling mentally or physically. Music from the 1970s left a mark on todays society and this scholarship would help me to continue my education, and aid me in creating my own impact on the world.
