I was named the Director, Cantate Youth Choir in August 2019 after having attended Manchester UMC, and singing in Chancel Choir, for about four years. Outside of Manchester, I teach 6-8 grade choir at Pattonville Heights Middle School in the Pattonville School District. I have be teaching middle and high school level choirs in St. Louis since 2016. I completed my undergraduate studies at Lindenwood University.

As the Director of Cantate, I am greatly blessed to work every week with some of Manchester’s fantastic youth, guiding them on a journey of music and faith.
