Music & Well-Being with Tasha Golden, PhD

Tasha Golden, PhD is a captivating force at the crossroads of well-being, art, and transformational change. An international expert fusing art and scientific insight, Dr. Golden offers a combination of warmth, storytelling, and unique insights that audiences find truly compelling.

As Director of Research at the International Arts + Mind Lab at Johns Hopkins University and a renowned expert in arts and health, Dr. Golden studies the profound influence of the arts on human well-being. Holding a PhD in Public Health, she bridges science and art to create compelling and impactful narratives.

Formerly the singer-songwriter for critically acclaimed band Ellery, Dr. Golden’s music has graced stages across the globe and found homes in films and TV. But a bout of major depression drove Dr. Golden from her music career—a devastating blow that led her to start over: asking provocative questions that led to her PhD, and to studies of creativity, health, and how we build a better world.

Dr. Golden’s story of transformation resonates with audiences, and serves as a powerful touchpoint for talks on mental health, creativity, self-development, and social change.
