About Emmons

Emmons is a McCook native and received his Associate of Science from Mid-Plains Community College in the spring of 2022.

Upon joining choir and band during that time he discovered that he wanted to make music his career, so he enrolled in classes at NPCC to earn an Associate of Fine Art – Music. He is on track to complete his degree in the spring of 2025.

“Music is one of the biggest parts of my life,” Emmons said. “It’s helped me meet a lot of great people and do a lot of great things.”

His favorite part of being a student at MPCC include trips to music competitions and playing for an audience. Emmons hopes to be a music teacher for elementary or high school in the future.
