Meet Kieron

Hi! My name is Kieron Bishop, and I'm a new intern from Herron High School. I was initially drawn to the Harrison Center because of its commitment to supporting art and music, something that has always been an integral part of my life. As a music intern, the majority of my time here is spent in the studio creating beats or learning new guitar riffs, helping with various events such as PreEnact and First Friday, and learning more about the people and history of the Martindale-Brightwood neighborhood. This last month has already been so inspirational to me as a musician and as a person, and I'm excited to learn more!

For as long as I can remember, I've loved listening to and playing music, but drums are my true passion. I've played in various groups, including school jazz bands and my own band, Herkimer. My style is primarily jazz-influenced, but I've been taking more from genres like metal, emo, and hardcore in recent years. I also enjoy working with computers, video editing, fitness, and political activism. I've also been in various extracurriculars, including my school's business club. In the future, I plan to go to college to study mechanical or automotive engineering, as I'm a big car nerd and I'd love to make a positive impact in that industry.

As a life-long resident of Indy, I can't wait to discover more about my hometown with the Harrison Center, and I hope to make real changes in the community.
