Shannon is one of the founding trustees of Crofton Music Trust. Although her professional career is in STEM, Shannon brings a wealth of musical experience to the board.

She has played the cornet for over 20 years, in wind and brass ensembles, and has both played and helped tutor younger players in youth organisations in the past.

Shannon believes that music is a key way to bring people together despite their differences, and is deeply committed to making music accessible to people from all walks of life. She is proud to have the opportunity to work with an organisation that aims to remove barriers from music.
