Meghan's Gift & Great Love

Baby Meghan (Photo courtesy of Liz Costello.) Meghan came into the world with her own little world wrapped around her -- a world of music. Most people with Williams syndrome have a deep love of music and many have special gifts in music. Meghan describes her feelings when she says
“Music is like soup -– it makes you feel good.” Meg thinks things through with music; she quiets her mind and eases her heart with music. She dances and sings and loves life through music. It is her way of expressing who she really is. Meghan exudes love and passion when she sings and audiences love her for it.

Meghan began singing seriously at Belvoir Terrace Music Camp in Lenox, MA. Nancy Goldberg, the Director of this wonderful camp, was impressed with her ability and her style. Nancy became a great supporter of Meghan’s gifts and encouraged her parents to nurture her musical abilities.

From that beginning, Meghan has had many wonderful opportunities to share her gifts by performing at various fundraisers:

Meghan has won awards through “Very Special Arts” for her singing while in high school in Kalamazoo, MI. She has appreciated the many doors that music has opened for her.

Meg’s dream is to travel the world. She loves other cultures and she wants to speak about diversity throughout the world and to help “build cultural bridges”. Her Mom shares the dream too. Their passion creates joy, insight and spirit-filled gifts. Read about their offerings on this website.

Please consider them when you are planning your next fundraiser or Diversity Awareness Program. This “Dynamic Duo” is available to come work with you!

Meghan is involved in the community of San Juan Capistrano, Ca. which is where she now resides. She goes once a week to volunteer at the San Clemente Animal Shelter. She enjoys many social outings with her friends from Casa de Amma and others she has met along the way. Meg is currently enrolled at Saddleback Community College taking voice and piano courses and hopes to continue expanding her horizons!
