This week we spoke with instrument repair technician, Allison Fong! Allison is such an inspiration when it comes to fitting into your own mold. After graduating with a double Bachelor's in Oboe Performance and Music Education, she realized she wasn't all that excited to continue either of those paths. During college, Allison worked part time at a music shop where she gradually built her instrument repair skills. She got to see how much of a difference she was able to make in band student's lives everyday while working there. Despite not looking like your average repairman, Allison followed this opportunity to a job that fits perfectly into her current life with her husband in Pittsburgh. We want to hear from you!
