Biography
I am currently the Campus Minister for Liturgical Music at Villanova University where I direct the Villanova Pastoral Musicians and provide musical leadership for all University liturgical celebrations.
From 2010-2017, I held the position of Director of Sacred Music at Saint Agnes Church, West Chester, serving as organist and directing Adult and Youth Choirs.
I serve as a board member of the Association of Church Musicians of Philadelphia.
Aside from my musical work, I have served as an adjunct professor of Religious Studies at Cabrini University, where I taught World Religions. I have also taught World Studies and Hebrew Bible at the middle school level. Working from the philosophy that students of all ages deserve an individually supportive, high-quality education, I try to be an intentional teacher who uses creativity and effective teaching methods to promote discovery, self-understanding and independence in the classroom; traits that students will use for the rest of their lives.
