I am so honored to be able to provide Music & Dance Education to communities.  Research shows the impact music and dance education has on Math, English, and graduation rates. My objective with Heartbeat Music & Performing Arts Academy is to bridge gaps in traditional education by introducing youth to the benefits of music.  I have experienced firsthand how music can change the course of your life.

​

As a former Grambling State University Marching Band Member, I have been exposed to many experiences that many people can only dream of. If I can do that for just one child, I am blessed. So far, the students of HBMPAA have been in nationally televised parades, television commercials and network shows. Our dancers have been afforded the opportunity to train and dance with the great Debbie Allen in her annual holiday live show, The Hot Chocolate Nutcracker.  

​

We are far from being done here at Heartbeat. So I look forward to engaging with you as you follow our journey.
