Accomplishments

During my UNIVERSITY Education, I had an opportunity to serve as a: choral director in Winners Campus Fellowship. A responsibility that became one of the most meaningful accomplishments of my university experience. In recognition of this commitment, dedication, leadership and contribution to the choir and fellowship, I was awarded a Certificate of Merit as a Choral Director. My role as a choral director required more than interest in music. It involves leadership, organization , effective communication, teamwork, discipline, creativity and ability to work with people with different abilities, personalities and levels of musical experience. I was responsible for contributing to the preparation and coordination of choir activities and ensuring that members worked together effectively during rehearsal and performances.
