Navigating through the emotional and confusing process of identifying schools, prepping, applying, auditioning, and deciding on the most appropriate music school was one of the most challenging undertakings of our son’s, as well as my, life! Steve Lipman cares and addressed us as individuals, he was our superhero from the industry on multiple occasions. Sometimes there were conversations that as a parent, I knew would be best had with another adult, an “expert”. Steve stepped in and handled those conversations directly with understanding, passion, knowledge, and heart. If he was a doctor, I’d describe his bedside manner to be over the top!!! Although ultimately all the leg work fell on us, I can say having the connections, insights, and guidance Steve offered us illuminated the path so that the process and journey were not only doable but transformative and successful. I’d do it all again, working with Steve is absolutely worth it!
