I currently oversee the Encore program. There are 650 students enrolled in the Performing Arts appreciation course. I co-ordinate and schedule the 52 performances each year that students attend. I oversea the Box Office, attendance, and grading for the course. I am also the administrative lead for International Student Orientation and Parents Weekend. I still teach a Term III course in Russia each year for one month. I also act as a liaison with the Clemens Center, Orchestra of the Southern Finger lakes, and the Arts Council of the Southern Finger lakes promoting programming and performances at all levels.
