JERRY's Story
As a lifelong musician, performer, teacher, and leader, Jerry thrives in helping others unlock their creative potential through experiential, arts-based learning. He has a 20+ year professional history of successful coaching, program development, staff development and instructional/curriculum design.
Jerry deeply believes in the power of "doing" in the arts. That is, one must not be an expert or even good at something to pursue it to find the joy and creativity inherent in our lives. Jerry harnesses the power of the arts and a deliberate creative approach to life, which allows us to open our minds to infinite idea generation, authentic innovation and new perspectives.
Based in New York City, in addition to making music and helping others to do so, Jerry enjoys museums, theatre, live performances, travel, gardening, cooking, and culinary adventures.
