What is your story? What connects you with music and why do you volunteer with MOC? At 2 years old, I had cancer of the eye and my right eye had to be removed. I spent my entire childhood in & out of hospitals. Music was my refuge. Now I can do the same for kids and it’s really therapy for me, helping to resolve my past fears and sadness.

Has your life changed because of your experience with MOC? I’m in touch with gratitude more than ever

What is your favorite #MOCmoment? Watching an entire family of the patient (& the patient) ask for 3 encores until we finally had say “ahhh, we have 60 other patients to see tonight!”
