I would love to drum with you as a Paraeducator and a percussionist myself. I saw your Be Mr. Jenson video at an orientation for Paraeducators in the Anoka-Hennepin district. When I was in elementary school, I was very much like you tapping and drumming all the time in class (that was in the mid to late 80s into the 90s). I took up band in 6th grade and never knew where where it would lead me to. It got me into high school winter indoor drumline from 92 to when I graduated in 98. In 1997, I had a friend who told me that I had a gift. He got me to audition for the (Bassline) for the Blue Stars Drum and Bugle Corps from LaCrosse Wisconsin and toured with the Corps. After that one year, I graduated high school and then served a full-time mission for the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. After my full-time mission, I auditioned for Minnesota Brass on their Bassline and marched with them for a season. For me, my friend Thomas Burton Reimer was my Mr. Jensen and in grade school, it was my 6th grade teacher who found that in me. So, your story really hits home. Now, as a dad, I have 2 sons who love drumming, and one has Autism and he also loves Teakwando. My oldest son wants to someday march as well. As a Paraeducator, I'm going to use your story as I can find ways to be a Mr. Jenson to my kids that I work with as well as for my sons. Thank you so much for sharing that story. And from one drummer to another, we should do a marching snare duet or battle if you ever come to the twin cities (Coon Rapids Minnesota). I cried watching your video and other videos. You inspire me.
Clint is a genius speaker. He is a master at his art.

Clint, you ROCK! Loved your presentation in Colorado yesterday over ZOOM. Already implementing what I learned and felt as you shared your insights :)
