About
My name is Nicholas Henderson. I am currently 19 years old and attend the University of North Georgia. I am planning on minoring in Music and majoring in Education. I have played the Cello in the Orchestra for about 9 years now and I absolutely love to listen to classical music! My main interests outside of school include practicing Cello, watching TV, and listening to music. I was born 'Legally Blind" and have difficulty reading small text, but I have been able to have so much success because of assistive technology I utilize. I have performed at iconic venues such as Carnegie Hall and have received numerous honor awards throughout my High School career. I want to continue pursuing music and receive a degree in Music Education!
