Welcome to Mrs. Gunder's Homepage
"I think music in itself is healing. It's an explosive expression of humanity.
It's something we are all touched by.
No matter what culture we're from, everyone loves music."
-Billy Joel
A bit about myself:
I graduated from the University of Minnesota, Morris with my Bachelor of Arts in
Instrumental & Classroom Music - Saxophone Performance.
I received my Master of Education in Teaching & Learning through
St. Mary's - University of Minnesota.
I have taught full time in South Washington County for 21 years, and previously long-term in the district for 5 years; prior to that I was working in St. Paul, Stillwater & Valley Crossing Community School (833, 834 & 622 collaborative school & at 15 Private Schools)
I love teaching band!
I am the South Washington County Community Band Director
I am a tenor saxophone player with the Red Rock Swing Band.
In my free time, I love to travel, hike, kayak, bike ride, do woodwork/wood turning,
hunt for antiques & attend car shows.
(I have owned my 1960 Chevy Impala since 1990).
