Learn to Lead Creatively

Hannah Stocksdale is pursuing a degree in music with a concentration in piano performance. One-on-one attention from professors has allowed her to thrive. Their friendliness and willingness to help have inspired Stocksdale. She wants to one day earn her Ph.D. so she can become a music professor who supports her students.

Playing as part of a musical ensemble has allowed the Cumming, Georgia, resident to learn the value of teamwork.

"When you're in an ensemble setting, you really have to work with other people and be friendly," Stocksdale said. "You need to listen to others and lead without being overbearing. Everyone has an important role."

Performing in front of others used to produce anxiety for Stocksdale, but she's now more comfortable on stage.
