The person who helped her to continue with music was the percussionist Ron Forbes.

He supported her in a very practical and encouraging way:

  • He tuned two large drums to different notes so she could feel the contrast between the sounds instead of just hearing them.
  • He told her, “Don’t listen through your ears, try to sense it some other way,” guiding her to experience the vibrations through her body and not give up on music.

In short, Ron Forbes noticed her potential, changed the way the instruments were used, and motivated her with those words so she could carry on with her musical journey.
