University of Nebraska-Lincoln, 1996; a nearly completed B.F.A. in Music Organ and Music
Composition at the University of Nebraska-Lincoln; courses completed with Healing Touch

Regional Medical Center, and Madonna Rehabilitation Hospital, both here in Lincoln; and a four-year
completed Education for Ministry Program through Sewanee University of the South, 2003, through
St. Mark’s Episcopal Church here in Lincoln.
Memberships of organizations I have taken part in
