Our conductor and Co-Founder, Jeff has singing in choirs since the age of
7, and is a veteran music teacher in the Foothills School Division. He has
lived and worked in Foothills area since 2015, and has performed with
several of the Foothills Philharmonic Society groups, most notably the FP
Chorus, Chamber Chorus, and Opera Chorus.
Jeff holds a Bachelor of Music degree (with Distinction) from the University of Western Ontario, and a Bachelor of Education degree from Nipissing University. He is also an alumnus of the Amabile Men's choirs in London, Ontario. When he's not singing or teaching, he can often be found playing softball, reading with a good cup of coffee, seeking out new music to listen to, or going on adventures with his family.
Conducting the Junior Singers has been a great source of joy for Jeff since its inaugural season in 2024. Watching the members of the Junior Singers find their voice, challenge themselves, and forge friendships has been one of the highlights of his career as an educator. Jeff looks forward to another great season with our wonderful singers! (edited)
