Daisy makes her greatest comeback of the season and appears this year as Vice President. When we asked Daisy why she likes being it student group she 1) jumped up and down because she was so excited to tell us and 2) said, "I love being a part of student group because of the community we have fostered with one another. This community of people is supportive and very special. Take advantage of it while you're here :)"

We are SO excited to welcome Dr. Kelly Carlson to our Department of Music Therapy team as Visiting Assistant College Lecturer this year!
Dr. Carlson has been a music therapist for over 21 years, and has worked and supervised music therapists with a wide variety of populations including early intervention, children in schools with special needs, adults with ID/DD, memory care, rehabilitation, substance abuse, and hospice care. Dr. Carlson's research interests include the use of intuition in clinical decision-making, professional well-being of music therapists, and historical research into the development of the music therapy field. This is Dr. Carlson's 3rd first year of teaching at the University level, and her head is spinning as she and her family relocated to Cleveland from Iowa with a week's notice. In her free time, Dr. Carlson loves animals, gardening, and spending time with her two children and husband.
