Being a musician is much more than playing an instrument. Choosing the right instrument and making music can be a life-changing experience. Being a musician is more than a talent, or a hobby; it’s building the skills needed to be the player and make the music you want.

The question of what experiences and people shape who we are can be murky for some yet have remarkable clarity for others.
Listening to Lawyers Club of San Diego President Yahairah Aristy for even a few moments makes clear that she is firmly rooted in that latter camp. Her life is testimony to a play on an old adage: behind every strong woman, there is a group of strong women who have supported, nurtured and prepared her for success.
The guiding light of her young life was provided by her grandmother, a native of the Dominican Republic who immigrated to New York City when Aristy’s mother was 13 years old. Born and raised in Manhattan with a couple of happy years in the Dominican Republic for middle school, Aristy benefited from her grandmother’s wisdom and warmth as she helped raise Aristy when her mother battled addiction. That foundation helped her overcome a brief yet sad time in foster care before being emotionally lifted by yet another strong woman.
