I am the Director of Choral Activities at Missouri Western State University in St. Joseph, MO. I have attended state conferences in Missouri, Texas, Nebraska, Wisconsin, and Iowa. I have presented my research at regional conventions in Maryland, Michigan, Indiana, Georgia and Iowa as well as international conferences in Czechia and Azerbaijan.
I am available for academic presentations or lectures for Music Education classes in the Midwest. My current research track is persistence and attrition in secondary choral music. I am able to discuss considerations for awareness to support our LGBTQ students in the music rehearsal, and supporting pre-service music educators during their student teaching experience.
