Becoming a Golden Hawk means more than just cheering on our (really good) varsity teams – it means being a student who cares about your community, who works hard in the classroom, and who takes advantage of all the learning opportunities that can happen outside the classroom, too.

With help from teachers Gene Montooth, John de Lancie and Richard Woodhams, I received my BMus (Shenandoah Conservatory) and MMus (Catholic University) degrees in oboe performance.
I have appeared as soloist, chamber musician and clinician with orchestras across Canada, Europe, North and South America and Japan and have been principal oboist with the National Arts Centre Orchestra, the Toronto Symphony and Boston Symphony Orchestras.
Currently, I am principal oboist with the Canadian Chamber Ensemble and the Kitchener-Waterloo Symphony, and each year I participate in summer music festivals, including the Elora Festival, Festival of the Sound in Parry Sound and the Cambridge Arts and Music Festival in Cambridge, Ontario.
