About Vanisha Evans

Unique, unicorn talents with over twenty years of work experience in arts administration, nonprofit management, and music education. My short and long term business start-up assistance and valuable expertise have proven to be an asset to any organization seeking guidance for streamlined operational procedures. I have developed successful, sustainable programs in past positions based on their needs, budget and desires. I am highly organized with keen attention to details. I work well in a supportive, collaborative environment. I am a team player and value the input of others to shape decisions. My fun and engaging music lessons make an impressionable impact on student learners, and activates curiosity. I am experienced at encouraging students to seek their passion by inspiring their areas of interests.A lover of music from Mozart to Motown, I began teaching myself how to play my family’s piano and clarinet around the 4th grade. I participated in all my public school music programs and eventually earned a music scholarship to attend college despite never having private lessons or formal training. I practice regularly which helps me stay connected and teach effectively to my fellow aspiring musicians.I am originally from Seaside, California and specialize in neo-soul music, especially Michael Jackson and Stevie Wonder. I perform a wide-range of music as a singer, pianist and clarinetist. I enjoy the healing vibrations of music and find learning to play my favorite songs by ear on the piano helps me understand music in a profound way. I am currently a vocalist in a funk band, The OhGeez. I have performed as an improv pianist and vocalist at the legendary Mercury Cafe in Denver, Colorado with Seth, Art Compost & the Word Mechanics. I have also performed as a clarinetist with the Rome Festival Orchestra and Opera and was one of twelve musicians from around the world selected to perform for the 2006 Claremont Clarinet Festival.I am the first generation of my family to attend a four-year university and graduate with honors. At graduation, I was honored to receive the prestigious Founder’s Day Medal, an award bestowed to one recipient from the college being recognized for outstanding student contributions to service and leadership. My career services students, leadership, and empowerment, and has included teaching music in public schools, managing youth orchestras, and establishing a non-profit youth band for aspiring young musicians.Connect with me here for collaborations, career opportunities, or consulting.vanishaevans2020@gmail.com
