The BBC’s Darwin Songhouse Project, Shrewsbury England (2009); has been commissioned to write musical theater for The U.S. Deptartment of State in New Delhi, India (2012); For the Indiana Arts Commission (2013 and 2016); and has written commissioned choral pieces for several national and international choirs. In addition, she’s been a returning presenter at Stanford University, et al, conducting songwriting seminars, performances and presentations throughout the world, including repeat workshops for IMRO (The Irish Music Rights Organization.
She tours the U.S. and Northern Europe consistently with her most recent album, Barely, which has been received with rave reviews.
