That’s why New York City actor, musician and substitute teacher, Nate Lombardi founded Groovy Projects, an educational initiative incorporating music, rap and performance to empower elementary school students to combat bullying by showing them positivity can be current and cool. Nate has shaped the lives of kids all over the country, using music and performance to not only connect them to their studies, but to connect them to each other.
