Carolyn Carter made her first public debut at age two singing, dancing. In addition, she modeled for magazines and art students. She has been uniquely blessed and unusually privileged to have been in the most elite arenas in music, sports and academics. After the late John F. Carter lost his companies of five and one half years, Carolyn became the sole source of financial support for the entire Carter family for decades. She has raised millions for adult and children's charities, missions, research facilities, the arts, music here and across the globe. She has been allowed to pioneer in a few areas and make several contributions to society. Some of which are in music, (singing, dancing and playing classical piano) sports,(track, swimming, downhill and extreme skiing and gymnastics shows) NASA experiments, protein formula for the acquired immune deficiency syndrome, assisting in enacting legislation (twice). She has patents pending for a few inventions. She reads several languages and is bilingual. The motto of her company is that people are the greatest resource. As an educator, children's advocate and public speaker, she empowers each person to find their voice with respect and kindness. She has protested against foreign wars, racism, and lobbyists for special interest groups. She humbly acknowledges a huge debt of gratitude to God from whom all blessings flow. She is most proud of being a Christian. She would like to thank her husband for his love and Chief Justice Linda Dalanis of the State Supreme Court of New Hampshire and the late Attorney Ed Swartz (for working with she on the children's fund) Mike for the ski races, President Carter (performing) and President Clinton,(who read her letter in his State of the Union Address), Jim for tirelessly playing her music on the Christian radio stations throughout the country and all of the people who attended her concerts and sporting events and all of her professors at the University of Massachusetts, Shenandoah College and Conservatory of Music, Franklin Pierce College and Harvard University. She would like to thank Colonel Caizzi of NASA. She would like to thank all of the national televised exposure for performing and sports events and local ones such as Inside Leominster and Barbara and You. Finally, she would like to thank media for the kind exposure and the millions of people who prayed for she to survive the explosion.

The John Hansen Music Studio was created to provide a friendly, family environment for learning music. The instructors follow the guidelines of a successful curriculum developed by Mr. Hansen from a lifetime of study with Boston's best music instructors including: Berklee College Of Music, world renowned jazz instructor Charlie Bonocas, Craig Najjar (Anita Baker), Bruce Katz (Ronnie Earl, Allman Brothers), Alphonse Andriotti (classical specialist), Lee Costa, Steve Hunt (Alan Holdsworth), and Dick Odgren. John has performed professionally for 35 years throughout New England and New York City in bands, duos, and as a solo act. Performing every style from classical to rock, he is a former member of the Doors tribute acts Crystal Ship and Break On Through, and is currently a member of the dance band Doubletake. John has been teaching professionally since 1987. Lessons are tailored to each student based on their level and the styles that they like. Their instrumental technique, music theory, arranging and improvisational skills will develop while playing songs that they know and like. Qualified students can join one of the fun Saturday afternoon pop/ rock ensembles. Joining an ensemble is a great way to improve musical skills while interacting with other musicians at or close to your level. Pizza and beverages are provided.
