I recently graduated from the University of Georgia with a bachelor's degree in history. I plan on attending Graduate School at UGA in January to pursue a masters in education. I continued playing in college and was a memebr of the Redcoat Marching Band for three years. In that time I have traveled across the country and the world playing for DAWGS football games, and also participated in the UGA cultural exchange prgram when the Redcoats went on tour in China in the summer of 2006. It was a blast to bring american style marching band to a new country, and it was a great experience to travel in such an ancient and mysterious land. I look back on my time in the band at Central as one of the happiest times of my life and I cherish every experience I shared with my friends and band family. I am extremely proud to see the band continue to excel and I am thankful that many others can enjoy the wonderful experience of learning and exploring the beauty of   music.
