As of December 2023, I call both Cleveland and Harrison home as I assume the appointment of Director of Music, Choirmaster, and Organist at St. John the Baptist Church in the Catholic Archdiocese of Cincinnati. At this expansive facility completed in 2019, I will build upon sacred arts by cultivating ensembles and presenting fine repertoire on a Schantz originally located at University of Cincinnati’s Probasco Auditorium.

Beginning August 2024, I will support the latest efforts of Miss Shannon’s Music Studio in Batesville, IN through studio teaching and classroom instruction. It is upwards and onwards for this local cultural hub.

I have had the privilege of participating in uncompromising repertoire activities of The Cleveland Orchestra and have returned for their 2023-24 season both at Blossom Music Center and at Severance Hall. This season includes Nobuo Uematsu’s Final Fantasy, Milos Forman’s Amadeus, Eric Whitacre’s moving The Sacred Veil, and William Walton’s stirring Belshazzar’s Feast. The season will conclude with a Mandel Opera & Humanities Festival performance of Mozart’s Die Zauberflöte in May 2024.

CFSO Artistic Director Steve Eva and I have enjoyed producing various performances including musicals for five years. From September to December 2023, I was the orchestra’s Executive Director. In addition to performing with the group, I cultivated audiences and coordinated events throughout the region. I enjoyed contributing to the success of this ‘gigging’ ensemble.
