Teachers helping teachers.
We're two music educators building AI tools for teachers, by teachers — because new ed-tech kept rolling out without music teachers in mind, so we built it ourselves.
This started as a single rehearsal prep tool. We were tired of seeing new technology handed to teachers without ever asking what music educators actually need — so we built the platform we wished we had.
MusEdLab is still very much a work in progress. We're learning as we go, shipping new tools regularly, and your feedback genuinely shapes what we build next.
Meet the founders
Matt Woodward
VP of Sales, Support & Solutions at an AI Ed-tech company, where he leads national go-to-market strategy. 18 years of award-winning experience as a choral director at MacArthur High School in San Antonio, and three years driving AI adoption across 750+ school districts in 38 states. Certified in Anthropic's AI Fluency & Foundations program, and presents at FETC, TCEA, and TMEA on practical AI applications in education. Matt is supported by his loving wife, BriAnne, and brilliant son, Ollie — with dogs Ruby and Pickles doing their best to interrupt the work.
Cathryne Hamsher
Music has been a lifelong passion — starting in theatre in middle school, performing through college, and singing at NYSSMA and in all-state choirs. Not a teacher herself, Cathryne worked alongside Matt in the education technology space, where a shared passion for thoughtful technology in music education sparked the idea for MusEdLab.
