Brian Gilbert, Researcher
Brian brings to Paper Crane Associates significant experience in music, research, entrepreneurship, and management. After completing a BA in mathematics from the University of San Diego, he moved to South Korea where, while working, he started a non-profit organization which helped independent musicians by promoting local music, connecting with music educators, and managing bands. From his first notes on a piano as a young child, he was hooked and never stopped learning the art, and the business, while growing as a songwriter, pianist, and guitarist through private education, secondary education and internet/mobile app-based learning. Brian is an avid traveler who is now visiting cities across the world experiencing local music and connecting with musicians, from learners to professionals.
