He is also a board member for the Boston Celebrity Series, reflecting his musical background and his passion for the arts. "When I was training as a classical musician, I was guided by the idea that 'proper preparation prevents poor performance.' It's a variation of the '5 Ps' – the British Army adage – and a good reminder that you have to break down problems in order to solve them, then prepare and practice so that you can perform at the top of your game. In music, as it is in work and life, performing at your best takes a strong work ethic, focus and discipline." |
