The Songwriting in Schools Program is one of the best things going as far as arts-in-schools goes. I love getting to work with this remarkable organization.

Though my role now is as a consultant, for 4 years I had the pleasure of composing songs for and leading the chorus of the Hunts Point Children's Shakespeare Ensemble. The new connection to The Public Theater promises to bring exciting new things to the HPCSE.

One of the great joys of the last few years of my life has been my connection to the Willow Globe Theater in Wales. I got to teach songs and talk Shakespeare at a conference there recently and fell in love. Our daughter's name even comes from this magic place!

(and coaching!)

...all over the world!

After 4 years at The School at Columbia in NYC, I'm now the head cross country coach at Valor Collegiate, a charter school in Nashville. There is nothing better than running outside in the fall!
