My musical journey began with attending Mass at Saint John Brebeuf in Niles, where I was quite fond of singing songs and hymns. I joined my school band (clarinet and trombone) and eventually began to cantor at Masses.
I studied music education at The VanderCook College of Music and the University of Florida and have been teaching music at Saint Patrick High School – Chicago since 2013.
In 2015 I joined St. Thecla as the musician for Polish Mass and cantor for English Mass, eventually becoming the parish Music Director.
I am happily married to my supportive wife, Joanna, and we have two energetic young boys. In what little free time I have, I enjoy woodworking and learning how to build/fix things.
