          • Do you think studying music has changed you as a person? If so, how?<\/strong> I do believe being in music has changed me – for the better. I have not always been the greatest student, but since discovering my passion for and studying music, I have become better. I enjoy learning things in school now when I can relate them to my musical career. For example, studying physics and seeing the relationship between sound waves and how the brain’s auditory center processes sound and lets us hear music was so interesting to learn about. Learning about how math and music theory collide and coexist at the same time was actually mind-blowing to me.<\/span><\/span>\u00a0<\/span>
