DMI Executive Director

I am excited to announce that I recently became the Executive Director of Daraja Music Initiative (DMI). DMI is a non-profit organization that teaches clarinet and violin to students at Majengo Primary School in Moshi, Tanzania, as well as aid conservation efforts for the African Blackwood tree. Both clarinets and the fingerboards of the violin are made from the wood of the African Blackwood tree, which unfortunately is commercially endangered. DMI uniquely bridges music education and conservation education.
