Stephanie was our summer student this year. She brought a number of fresh ideas with her and helped us in moving our social media project forward in a strategic manner.

Where are you from? I’m from Calgary! I still spend my summers here and then go to school at the University of Western Ontario in London Ontario for the rest of the year!
What do you take? I take music and business with a focus on music production and marketing. After my degree I hope to be able to practice business in some aspect of the music industry.
When and how did you first get involved in music? I started music from day one - my grandma is a piano teacher so it was super important to her and my mom that I start music early. I’m pretty sure Baby Mozart was the soundtrack of our house through my entire infancy! In junior high was when I really started doing musicals and performances and just fell in love with it, I’ve been doing it ever since!
What instruments/type of music do you play? I started with piano, but now I play guitar, ukulele and sing!
How did you first find out about the Legacy Children’s Foundation’s Gift of Music program? Through close friends and the Hunter Family Foundation who’ve worked with Legacy before! As soon as I heard about it I knew it was something I would be passionate about.
What is your favourite part about working with the foundation? I do mostly behind the scenes work so I haven’t had the privilege of working closely with the youth, but just knowing that my work is going to make a difference in someone’s life is super rewarding.
What is your favourite song/band right now? Too many to choose! I’d say right now I’m listening to a lot of July Talk and the Lumineers.
If you could have any superpower what would it be? To freeze time so I could get all my work and chores done and then unfreeze it to go do the things I love…plus it would be a great way to pull pranks on people!
Tell us an interesting fact about yourself: One of my greatest passions is travelling and, so far, I’ve been to twenty countries ☺
