"I realized I wanted to be a music therapist when I saw the benefits music therapy provided to my younger brother who is autistic. My brother was non-verbal before being introduced to music therapy, and since he started, he now says a few words and lights up when music is played. He has become much calmer with music therapy, and he loves when I play my guitar for him. I decided I wanted to help others like my brother has been helped."
