“By having a degree in youth ministry I am able to work with youth through my zeal of music,” says Kohler.

“[My goals] are to allow students to have a desire to want to practice all the time to improve their musical talents,” Kohler says. “I want them to push themselves to accomplish everything they do at an 100 percent.”
