Abstract
I will discuss how my passion for the arts and sciences originated in and developed since elementary school, and led me to my present work as a professional percussionist, educator, researcher, and entrepreneur. Throughout high school, I pursued music and science projects in parallel. My dual interests encouraged me to pursue a double major in music and chemistry at Kalamazoo College. My senior thesis introduced me to acoustical research when I worked with Dr. James Cottingham at Coe College to study the acoustics of a new drum tuning system that I invented and patented. I presented my research at ASA 2007 in New Orleans and other research at subsequent ASA conferences. After finishing college, I pursued a doctorate in musicology at the Eastman School of Music at the University of Rochester. I will discuss specific examples of my past and current interdisciplinary projects, and how my association with the ASA continues to inspire my endeavors.
