Helping others discover self-confidence through music

Gifts of Music NW
Executive Director: Bo Bestvina
​
Prior to starting Gifts of Music NW, Bo ran a private music teaching business with a social impact through his work with at-risk youth. Prior to that, Bo was a public school teacher for eight years.
It was a 7th social studies student of Bo’s who inspired him to pursue a career in music. In the middle of a quiet work time, he raised his hand and in front of the class said, “Mr. Bestvina, I’ve heard your music online, you’re pretty good. Maybe you could teach music?” After work Bo thought about what his student said. Over the next year, Bo saved up some money and took the leap of faith.
Outside of work, Bo loves exploring the beautiful pacific NW, learning history, and spending time with his family and friends.
