Finding the Boy Inside: Overcoming the Effects of Being Bullied Through the Use of God’s Gift

Dr. David Klee has led a very driven life by overcoming the abuse from being bullied as a child. Born very premature with numerous health problems, he faced lifelong struggles just trying to survive, much less succeed. David not only overcame the effects of the abuse and learned to cope with his health issues, he also achieved considerable success as a professional musician, educator, recording studio musician and owner, husband and father, and teacher/mentor for aspiring musicians. Among his many musical endeavors, he started as a professional musician performing on multiple instruments beginning in Tampa, Florida, and eventually touring the Eastern Seaboard. During this time, he performed with a number of major top artists and shows. After touring, David went back to school and eventually earned his doctorate degree in flute performance. As an educator, David worked as a band director for nine years before changing his direction to focus on working at the collegiate level. He currently keeps up his professional music skills by performing as principal flute in both a regional orchestra and a professional concert band. David and his wife Judi also perform regularly with their Christian music ministry, Inspiration Ministry.
