    My life’s passion has been being involved with the arts. Specifically I was raised by parents who saw great value and discipline in learning to play an instrument and performing. We had a small Drum & Bugle Corps in my hometown of Norwood, the 21st Lancers. After the blizzard of 1978, my Dad had enough money to get work again with his construction company. He folded the corps and I joined the Boston Crusaders. I have been involved with them since 1978 as a performer, instructor, management and Board member. In 2012 we formed Inspire Arts & Music. It broadened our impact from 150 kids to over 20,000. We own a Performing Arts Center in Hyde Park, teach free music lessons across the city, run Music Festivals across New England and support a award winning national touring Drum & Bugle
    Corps.

    I helped found a highlight event and fund raiser held every June at the Norman Leventhal park in Post Office square. Please join in supporting the annual Concert in the Park:
