How long have you played with WTB, and how did you come to join us?
I joined the band in 2021, after my husband, Tim, did.
Which instruments do you play? I play flute and piccolo, piano, and I sing.
Do you play in any other local bands?
Yes! I play with Vermont Symphonic Winds
Are you originally from Vermont?
No. I was raised in Amherst, MA. After graduating from the Indiana University School of Music I lived in Indiana for 34 years.
What kinds of things do you like to do when you aren't playing music?
Professionally, I am currently directing three choruses and teaching 5th-8th grade music at Williston Central School. I play flute, sing in the choir, and play in the bell choir at my church in Burlington.
Personally, Tim and I have 4 children that are located in Indiana, Ohio, Tennessee, and Vermont. We have two precious grand-daughters in Ohio. We travel quite a bit to remain involved in their lives.
What else should we know about you?
I've been performing musically for over 50 years. I never stopped, just kept on playing through the years. I also love to play in the pit orchestra for musicals!
