MUSIC AND ARCHITECTUREI have been a professional musician since age 14, with wide experience in churches, professional ensembles, and studio work. This was my first career, and I have maintained it on a part time basis even after I returned to school and began a second career as a full time architect.Since graduation with an accredited 5-year B. Arch. degree from Oklahoma State University, my experience in architectural design, technical specifications, and project management has included all types of project, from high-end custom housing to military dormitories; and from commercial projects to a launch facility at Cape Canaveral. I very much prefer working as part of a design team, to marketing proposals to new clients, and so I have focussed my career on being a "team player" in A/E firms instead of opening my own practise as so many of my classmates have done. I began my internship when only the largest firms were moving to CADD, and my first projects were drawn entirely by hand; but I have always stayed up-to-date and learned to use the latest technology wherever necessary and possible, trying to use the newest computerized tools as effectively as I first learned to use leadholders and technical pens.I am also currently available as a substitute or temporary organist for most religious denominations, for weddings and funerals, and as a private instructor in organ, harpsichord, oboe, recorders, and voice. I would also consider accepting an appointment as a combination organist and choir director at a church with a traditional liturgy and an active music program.

Listed skills include Architectural Design, Submittals, Bim, Construction Drawings, and 30 others.
