I’m very excited to be joining the Boise Baroque Orchestra as Executive Director. 
Boise Baroque’s unique structure of bringing in expert guest artists under the artistic leadership of Robert Franz has cultivated a collaborative ensemble with a level of musician and community involvement which is truly impressive. Equally as exciting is the enthusiasm and dedication of the board and patrons under the leadership of Helen Carter. Initiatives such as the Baroque Bow Project illustrate an authentic dedication to supporting Baroque music in the Treasure Valley. 
I’m honored to be joining the organization at such an exciting time. Despite the challenges of the global pandemic, the Boise Baroque remains steadfast in its commitment to developing musical excellence in the community. I share Robert, Helen, and the board’s mission of growing Baroque music in the Treasure Valley and look forward to increasing accessibility of our concerts for younger, more diverse audiences, developing our community partnerships, and scaling our organization to new levels.
