Singer-songwriter and Band Manager for RCD Music (Cats Cradle, Local 506, Second Wind) Past Service on Orange County Advisory Boards: N/A Arts Commission Background, education and experience relevant to this board: I have deep roots in the Triangle arts community. I grew up in Durham and attended Durham School of the Arts for middle and high school. My public arts education showed me the necessity of accessibility in the arts, and how arts education has a profound impact in the lives of young people. I participated in the Community Chorus Project for three years, which allowed me to tap into the strong arts community of Chapel Hill at an early age. I have now gone on to study music and public policy at UNC, in order to incorporate my passion for the arts with social justice. In my time at UNC, I have been heavily involved with community service groups, student policy initiatives, and the performing arts. My most relevant experiences have been my time working with Carolina Performing Arts, the Arts Center, and Musical Empowerment. Each play large roles in the arts in Chapel Hill, and have offered me various perspectives on what the arts mean 6 Page 2 of 2 Rachel Despard Other Comments: This application was current on:5/10/2019 2:55:21 PM Date Printed:5/13/2019 Supplemental Questions: Boards/Commissions appointments: to this community. Each of these experiences have expanded my skills in event coordination, administration, and leadership. Additionally, I have learned both how these organizations have been successful in fulfilling the needs of the community, and where there is room to grow. Furthermore, I will be able to bring the perspective of a UNC student to the board, and specifically the perspective of a student in the arts. Finally, as a regularly performing singer- songwriter I will be able to offer the perspective of an independent musician. Reasons for wanting to serve on this board: On this board, I hope to serve as a voice for UNC students, as well as offer a point of connection between the arts in the community and the arts at the university. Having been in both spaces, I have seen the deficits in communication on each side, and a desire for stronger partnership. I want to help bridge the gap, and create a more open dialogue between various groups. I see enormous potential for the arts in this area that could be reached if there was more communication between university and community arts organizations. There is vast talent in this area, inside and outside of UNC, and a need for more connectivity. This would not only allow for greater creative potential, but also a way to break down the barrier that exists between the university and the town. The arts offer a unique opportunity for ambassadorship; a way for UNC student to engage with their community, and a way for residents to access all that the university has to offer.

Conflict of Interest: Commission for the Environment Background, education and experience relevant to this board: I initially started college as a meteorology major before switching to business administration, and learned in courses about how human behavior can affect the environment and climate.
