My name is Chloe Cho, a high school senior at Bergen County Academies in Hackensack, New Jersey. Growing up, I witnessed my grandfather's daily struggle with PTSD from his service in Vietnam, compounded by severe insomnia. His experience resonated with me as I began to face my own health issues during high school. Discovering the therapeutic benefits of music during my research on insomnia and mental health was transformative. This realization led me to establish Solis and Luna Arts, a nonprofit dedicated to promoting mental health awareness through music therapy. By sharing my journey and advocating for accessible healthcare solutions, I aim to provide support and healing to individuals grappling with similar challenges.
