OBJECTIVE

To become employed by your organization; allowing me to use all of my skills and talents to their full potential.

BACKGROUND

I have been playing piano since 1989, I have also been paying the trumpet since 1996, and the organ since 1999.  I have accompanied various choruses and soloists throughout Lackawanna County, and I have been involved with various high school musical productions throughout North Eastern Pennsylvania.   

I have been playing church services, in the Methodist, Lutheran, and Roman Catholic traditions since 1995. I am also currently studying Music Education at Marywood University, concentrating on Jazz Piano, embracing the Classical Genre, and studying church music as well.

I am also very fluent in computers, working with all Microsoft based operating systems ranging from MS-DOS to Windows XP, including all systems in between.  I can handle most computer related problems, and have the knowledge to set up small networks, both wired and wireless.  

Finally, I take great pride in all of my work, and get a great feeling of accomplishment seeing other people benefit from my efforts, whether it be fellow co workers, or the general population. I look forward to working with you.
