My Work

I love to educate, write, and tell interesting stories. See some of the ways I’ve done that in the following samples of my work.

Online Courses

Since beginning work at Virtuous, I’ve been responsible for planning and executing several new product courses. While I worked with teammates, I handled a significant amount of the curriculum planning, script writing, and video editing for all courses:

• RaiseDonors

• Responsive Fundraising: Level 2 (This is my baby! I planned and built this entire course myself.)

• Virtuous BI

• VOMO

Sample Curricula

Over the years, I’ve taught 20+ different courses. Here are some course materials, both from classes I’ve actually taught, and those I’d like to.

• 20th-Century Western Art Music History – Furman University – Spring 2016

  • Course Topics and Schedule

  • Repertoire List

• Classical Music in Popular Culture – Course Proposal – Pedagogy Class Assignment

• Politics, War, and Music in the 20th Century and Beyond – Course Proposal – Pedagogy Class Assignment

Writing

Here is some of my musicological research and writing that’s out in the world.

• Program notes – William Bolcom’s A View from the Bridge – Indiana University Opera and Ballet Theater

• “Hearing the ‘Töne eines Passionsliedes’ in J.S. Bach’s Christmas Oratorio: The Nineteenth-Century Critical Reception of BWV 248,” Bach: Journal of the Riemenschneider Bach Institute of Baldwin Wallace University 45, no. 2 (2014): 34–67. I won an award from the American Bach Society for this one!

• “Memory and Commemoration in Robert Schumann’s Album Leaves,” PhD diss. (Indiana University, 2019).

Public Speaking

I love lecturing and speaking to audiences of all kinds. As part of my job at the Curtis Institute of Music, I regularly researched, wrote, memorized, and presented introductions at student recitals.

• Curtis Institute of Music – November 29, 2021 – Introduction to Franz Schubert’s Winterreise

Conference Presentations

Though it’s been awhile, I’ve presented quite a few papers at conferences.
