What does it take to build a legacy through education and community service? On the latest episode of the Be A Baller podcast, we're thrilled to feature Catherine Willis, a dynamic community activist and life long educator. Catherine opens up about the profound influence of her parents, especially her mother's dedication to teaching, which paved the way for her own commitment to education. Her story takes us through her personal evolution, meeting her husband Ed, a fellow educator, and her enduring dedication to community upliftment.

We also explore Catherine's pioneering work with Urban Strings, a youth orchestra that has blossomed from its humble beginnings into a powerhouse nurturing the musical talents of underserved children. Learn how this initiative, alongside the Helen Jenkins Davis Scholar
