“I am excited and honored to join the board of ARTZ Philadelphia because I am inspired and completely aligned with our mission. I’ve seen firsthand the impact that music and the arts have had on my mom as we’ve navigated her dementia diagnosis. I’m so grateful for the hope and connectivity for those living with dementia, their families, and the community.”
