First United Methodist Church Appleton, WI

I am absolutely thrilled to direct the Wesley Handbell Choir here at FUMC!

I was born and raised in Neenah and have enjoyed living in various parts of the Fox Valley. I am currently working on my undergraduate degree as a Music Education major and German minor at the University of Wisconsin Oshkosh. My love for handbells was cultivated through my experience playing with the UW-Oshkosh Handbell Choir. I have been playing handbells for five years with various groups and have enjoyed playing in large and small handbell ensembles, as well as solo work.

I primarily play trombone and am a “jazzer” at heart. I also study piano independently and play a wide spectrum of genres. When I'm not studying music or German, I spend my time outdoors, in my garden, and on the water.
