LSW MUSIC CALENDAR

I am beginning my 17th year as Director of Choral Activities at Lincoln Southwest High School.  For the 2019-20 school year, I am continuing my role as Music Department Chair.  I have a wonderful group of colleagues that I work with each day and am proud to be part of such an exciting and growing Music Department.  As Choral Director, I have the privilege to direct the Varsity Select Chamber Choir, co-direct Varsity Concert Choir, Mixed Concert Choir, Freshman Choir, assist with the Prep and Varsity Show Choirs and I am the Vocal Music Director of the annual LSW Musical.  I am a member of MENC, NMEA, ACDA, and NCDA as well as serving on committees at LSW.

I love teaching at LSW and look forward to another great year in E-Wing!
