I am a teacher, conductor and musicologist, having recently completed a Ph.D. in musicology from the University of California, Davis, with a dissertation entitled, Against the Grain: Modernism and the American Art Song, 1900 to 1950. This examines trends in the composition, performance, and reception of American art songs during this period.
I teach music and scripture at Loretto High School in Sacramento, and am a church musician (and webmaster) at the Lutheran Church of the Incarnation in Davis.
Feel free to browse my web site at your leisure. I have included a biography, a résumé, and a link to some information regarding my dissertation. I also have a page containing links to some of my favorite web sites.
