Boston Music Project Welcomes New Board Members!

Alyssa is an independent public relations, social media, and influencer marketing consultant who partners with local and national clients across the CPG, lifestyle, and nonprofit sectors to shape and elevate their communications strategies.

A Connecticut native, Alyssa discovered her passion for music early on. During high school, she played flute and piccolo with the award-winning Cheshire High School Marching Ram Band, which led to unforgettable experiences—most notably performing in the 2000 Macy’s Thanksgiving Day Parade.

Now based in Boston’s South End, Alyssa and her husband, Lyle, share a love of music that spans genres from jazz to tropical house (Lyle DJ’d weddings and parties during college, so there’s always a curated soundtrack at home!).

Alyssa is excited to bring her marketing expertise to the Boston Music Project board and looks forward to helping amplify the organization’s mission and programs.

Vivian works at TA Associates, a global growth private equity firm where she focuses on investments in companies across North America. Outside of work, she brings her deep passion for youth arts programs—where she first discovered the harp, orchestra, and a true sense of belonging—to her role at Boston Music Project, helping create transformative opportunities for the next generation.

Passionate about working towards equity and opportunities that allow all children to grow and thrive, Sarah is inspired by and proud to be a part of Boston Music Project.

She looks forward to supporting BMP’s growth, excellence and impact alongside our city’s children and families.
