About Me

At the University of Mary, I teach applied low brass, music theory, and sacred music, and direct the “Blue Crew” Pep Band. I enjoy helping students develop a deeper understanding of music while leading them toward expressive and purposeful performance practices. I am grateful to serve at the University of Mary among colleagues who share a passion for leading students to discover deeper truths about the nature of reality through the study of every discipline.

Why I’m At Mary

The University of Mary community is special. Supportive faculty, enthusiastic students, and helpful staff, all working within the context of the Benedictine Values, create one of the most satisfying work environments that I have been a part of.

Expertise

I currently serve as the principal trombonist of the Bismarck-Mandan Symphony Orchestra. I have performed in a variety of ensembles and settings such as with the Memphis Jazz Orchestra, Memphis Knights Jazz Band, Southern Comfort Jazz Orchestra, and chamber ensembles such as the Bluff City Brass Quintet.
