“When School of Rock is telling you about the franchise, they tell you all these stories about how kids' lives are transformed through the school. I thought it was nice to hear, and I was looking forward to one day seeing the same thing, but I wasn’t expecting to see that right away. Then we opened, and I couldn’t believe how quickly it happened. As soon as we started teaching, we were getting feedback from parents telling us how important the school is to their kids. It’s an amazing feeling to be doing something that I love and know that it’s really helping people.”

"School of Rock is much more than a great business. It touches lives every day--from students to teachers to entire families. My school is always full of laughter, music and happiness.  It is easily the most rewarding and successful business of which I have ever been a part.

"This is a fulfilling enterprise. This is really about self-actualization and achieving a dream of having a high-profile positive impact in the community. You can look long and hard from Alaska to Miami, but it’s really difficult to find a business you can start that’s actually fun. Maybe you can make $100 more a month at a franchise deli shop, but you’re making sandwiches. This is so much more unique."
