I began the study of the Organ at the age of 12 with Ida Benton Leirer at Frankford Memorial United Methodist Church.

I won a full paid Philadelphia Board of Education Scholarship and chose to attend The Philadelphia Conservatory of Music, now The University of The Arts, where I received my Bachelor of Music Degree. I studied organ with Robert Elmore, Robert Knox Chapman and Frederick Roye.

My first job, while a student, was at The Jenkintown United Methodist Church where I assisted Dr. Lois Hedner at the Organ and with the Choirs.

When I moved to Cumberland Maryland I became the Organist/Choir Master at the Historic Emmanuel Episcopal Church. While in Maryland I was elected to “Who’s Who Among Outstanding Young Women in America”.

Upon moving back to the Philadelphia area I served as Organist/Director of a graded Choir Program, singing and Hand Bells, at Jenkintown United Methodist Church, Johnson Memorial United Methodist Church, Langhorne United Methodist Church and Woodside Presbyterian Church.

For the past eighteen years (as of March 1, 2022) I have been the Organist at St. Andrew’s United Methodist Church in Warminster and I am the Organist for the Chapel of The Four Chaplains, where I received The Legion Of Honor Award.

I am honored to have been a member of the Board of The Philadelphia Chapter of the American Guild of Organists.

I have been the Accompanist for the Oliver Heckman Elementary School Chorus in Langhorne for 20 years and have maintained a Piano/Organ Studio since being a freshman in College.
