Alumni Board of Directors

The Jubilate Alumni Board of Directors is composed of current Jubilate members, representatives from University Baptist Church, and Jubilate alumni. We meet twice a year – in person and via Zoom. But most importantly, we support the current members throughout the year with prayer and guidance.

Meet Our President

I sang in Jubilate all four years I was at UVa, from 1986–1990. I was fortunate to be introduced to Jubilate by my church librarian, Becky Sykes, at First Baptist Church, Greensboro; she was a Jubilate alumna. I sang under Len Willingham for three years and Edmund Najera led us my fourth year. Jubilate was a safe haven for me in the midst of the larger University community, a small group where I formed lasting friendships. Looking back, I also really appreciate the difficulty of the music we sang and the musical excellence to which we aspired as a group.

Raleigh, North Carolina has been my home since I graduated in 1990. My husband, Brad, and I have two children, Alex and Elena; we are very involved members of Forest Hills Baptist Church, where I sing in the choir.
