I’ve been a practicing physician for over 30 years. Every day, I get to wake up and do a job I love – it’s not something I take for granted. I want every child in our commonwealth to have that same opportunity, and the foundation for that is a quality education.
To me, the object of practicing is to allow you to play what you hear. But you’re always hearing new things, so you never get to the end of it.
I have an interesting perspective on depending on others. I think it gives people a chance to serve. And I’m not so much big on independence, as I am on interdependence.

When people are coming to Krakow and we show them how and where we practice, they are like, ‘Seriously? Are you kidding me?’ But we’re always saying that what matters about the courts – the lines, the nets – are the same. I’m practicing in Poland even when I don’t have good facilities.

Basically, if you work hard and practice an instrument every day, you’ll learn how to play like a professional. You’ll get better and better each day. And that’s how it works for me. I wasn’t magically inclined to play. I had to keep practicing and practicing to train my fingers.
