“I’ve always believed that I am here for a purpose, and the Music Action Lab helped me understand more clearly what that purpose was. In just one month, the Lab was the full package for me to shape my goals in life and understand what I am fighting for: change, social justice, and to use my voice as a contribution to the renaissance of this world.”

“Music Action Lab’s strength and uniqueness lies in the components centered around entrepreneurship and social development. The difficult process of defining the undefinable is essential to harnessing music’s expansive scope, redirecting it toward an objective to make our life, and the lives around us, better. Music Action Lab took on this mountain of a task in a bold way, embracing the latest in technological, entrepreneurial and cultural thinking. I am grateful for the newfound tools I’ve internalized from this program which I can now use to pursue my own path in the global arts community.”
