Can you tell us about your journey with music? Why did you decide to major in music?

“I’ve always loved music all my life and wanted to pursue that into my career. I was born hard of hearing and other disabilities, and that didn’t stop me from doing and enjoying what I love. I started singing when I was about 5 or 6 and really loved it. I was [in] choir throughout middle school and high school. I started playing guitar when I was 12, and I self-taught myself throughout the years. I wanted to be a performer at first, but that area was challenging, so I started to explore behind the scenes on what it’s like with an artist or group, 节目是如何制作的, 如何[运行], what does it take to be an artist manager, promoter and all those things. It really took my interest, and [I] wanted to take on that area a lot further. 在过去的几年里, I made a stage name KYLEROCKSOUT and started to put together local shows with local artists and booked them at the Marquis Theatre, Summit Theatre and the Aggie. It makes me want to do those things more, and that’s what made me want to go to school to have those skills as a career in the music industry. I was supposed to start at DIME when 密歇根州立大学丹佛 was partnered with them before COVID and when the virus hit, 事情改变了, and I ended up just attending 密歇根州立大学丹佛 as a regular student and started out by just majoring in music to get started.”

Favorite song/artist and why?

“I have a lot of favorite artists and songs, but my favorite band is “All Time Low,” and it’s so hard to choose a song because they’re all so good. I’ve seen that band live every time they rolled through 丹佛 and been to almost every meet and greet. I would do anything for that band.”

Favorite thing about 密歇根州立大学丹佛? What made you decide to apply here?

“I know I said before that I was supposed to go to DIME, so I was already applied to 密歇根州立大学丹佛, but I’m glad I stuck with it in the long run because 密歇根州立大学丹佛 itself does have a lot of options academically. It also has diversity, and I think that’s a cool thing. I also like that the campus shares other schools because you get to meet a lot of people that way and I like talking to people.”

Being in the second semester of your freshman year at 密歇根州立大学丹佛, what advice could you offer prospective students?

“My advice I would give is always be ready for change. You might know what you’re getting into for a major, but you might have to make adjustments, 这没关系. There’s always something you’re into, but you can change your mind at any time. Also, be ready to work hard and have an open mind. 大学有很多工作要做, and I think I owe some of my friends an apology because I wouldn’t believe them when they said they were busy all the time because it’s true. You also find out a lot about yourself as a person and find out what you really want, and that’s a good thing because I spent 10 years working in the workforce trying to find where to fit in, 这需要一段时间, but your heart leads you to the right place.”
