I serve on the board of the Lakes Area Music Festival because I believe it’s essential that our community has access to high-quality arts experiences close to home. LAMF brings world-class musicians to our area, creating opportunities that might otherwise only be available in larger cities. I’m especially passionate about ensuring school-aged students have access to live music, as that exposure helps them see new possibilities for themselves while building creativity and confidence.
