Our next to last intern to spotlight is Allyssa Nehrenz. She comes to us from Belmont University in Nashville, TN. She originally got into music therapy after talking to a vocal teacher in high school and expressing her interest in music as a career. Like many of us therapists, Allyssa didn't want to perform or teach music traditionally, so her teacher gave her some info about music therapy and Allyssa quickly fell in love with the idea. She has always had a passion for music and children with special needs, so music therapy is the perfect career choice for her. Allyssa's favorite moment thus far in internship was when a student told her should become TikTok or youtube famous. She says, "I loved the support and confidence the students had in my singing and guitar playing even though I am far from ever becoming a social media influencer."

​Allyssa's favorite musician is Kacey Musgraves and she enjoys cooking or baking. Allyssa also enjoys dark chocolate and watermelon sour patch candies. Her favorite vacation she's ever taken was a cruise with her family to Alaska. Welcome, Allyssa!
