“The music and theater departments at Tabor gave me the freedom to explore my ability to perform. By the vocal faculty, specifically, I was taught skills that not only allowed me to find the musician within myself, but also to further the process of finding myself as a man of God. The music department truly gifted me with the confidence needed to persist through the uncertain waters of the opera world.”
