Ingleside native Olivia Peterson, 28, is no stranger to higher education, nor starting a new career.
After graduating high school, she pursued a bachelor s degree, and then a master s, in music with the goal of becoming a professional classical musician.
It s a world she s been a part of most of her life, even participating in the College of Lake County Wind Ensemble when she was about 12 years old. However, preparing for the career, and actually taking part in it, ended up being two very different things.
