About JCMW

JC Music & Wellness services promote positivity, generate creativity, and support growth.
 We believe in the potential that exists in all creators, and strive to cultivate feelings and interactions rooted in trust, safety, honesty, and integrity. 

In 2016, I decided the time was right to merge all of my services, projects, credentials, and professional info under one business umbrella, thus officially creating JC Music & Wellness LLC, though I had been operating my own business since I was thirteen years old.

The programs, workshops, lessons, coaching, and seminars I provide and facilitate have been carefully crafted, meticulously refined, often road-tested, and heavily fortified with my nearly three decades of experience in the Music and Wellness industries.

My certifications as a Yoga teacher, Reiki master practitioner, Mental Health First Aid, Conflict Resolution, Restorative Justice, and more adds unique perspective to my approach and delivery of information, making my teaching methods innovative and one-of-a-kind practices. 

I am am active musician, writer, songwriter who regularly performs, and produces original content.
