I am a provisional Elder in The United Methodist Church in the Illinois Great Rivers Conference. I have a Master of Divinity at Garrett-Evangelical Theological Seminary. I am a member of the Order of St. Luke.

Part-time pastor/full-time Divinity student

I frequently play the piano for various venues such as: churches (church services), country clubs (dinner music), competitions (choir accompanist), schools (choir accompanist), weddings, funerals, etc.

I substitute for the schools in and surrounding the Mount Carmel area. I work in two different regions and five districts, including two private schools. I teach all levels and all subjects, with a preference towards music.

I accompanied all the adult and children's choirs on Sunday mornings. These included: Joyful Singers (women's choir), Men of God (men's choir), Chancel Choir, Mass Choir, and the various children's choirs. I also played for the contemporary services as the keyboardist in the praise band. In addition to these, I volunteered to play in the adult handbell choir and do the occasional fill-in as organist, playing for the entirety of the services (hymns and special music).

I taught piano lessons for students in the Charleston area. This included children and adults.
