Meet Our Honors Students

Kerri Sullivan, Music

I am a Pittsburgh native, majoring in Music Therapy at Duquesne.  Music therapy is the use of music and music activities to accomplish individualized goals within a therapeutic relationship.  I'm also a part of the Honors College, because it's important to me to receive the best liberal arts education I can, in addition to my music studies.

Outside of clinical music therapy work, I aspire to conduct research and advocacy in the music therapy field in order to raise awareness and knowledge about its usefulness, so that it may become more accessible to those who need it.

I chose my major because I want to have a job that is more than just a job; I want to fulfill my calling in the world as a Christian to be a healer and a peacemaker, using all my talents to the fullest extent.

On a personal level, I hope to make a difference in the world both by my work and by raising a family.  I'm passionate about music, of course, but also about studying academic subjects, studying my faith, staying healthy, and getting to know people!  I wish you all the best as you make your college decision.
