Kaitlyn Norman follows passion for music at UNM

Kaitlyn Norman’s teen years weren’t easy. Placed into the foster care system, she bounced around to different families and high schools  ̶  a tough background to emerge from with success. She’s graduating this month from The University of New Mexico with her Bachelor of Music in Performance. Norman was thrown into the foster system when her mother relapsed into drug addiction. “Eventually things escalated to a violent tipping point, the police were called, and my mother and her boyfriend were arrested,” she recalled. Foster homes were chaotic. “When you’re 13 and in custody, you’re viewed as dangerous and unstable. Because you are a teenager, people don’t feel comfortable opening their homes,” she observed.
