I am so grateful to be able to make it on the Dean's list. It was one of my goals when I came to Tennessee State University. I play the French Horn in the marching band and the cello in the orchestra. I also know how to play the piano because I want a career that teaches elementary students and get them started into music. If I do find a job that's in that area, it wouldn't matter how much I would get paid. I just want to see students learn about instruments, play them, and let it follow them for the rest of their lives. Of course I want my time to shine. What I really want to do is be able to play on stage at an important event such as the BET Awards or American Idol. I want people to hear my playing and just sit and enjoy what I am offering to give them. I'm not that type of person to brag on myself but when my work speaks for itself, I let other brag for me. :)
