Her love for choral music was nurtured in her years at UNC Charlotte.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">&#8220;I loved being a part of the Chamber Choir,&#8221; she recalls. &#8220;Touring and rehearsing with that group was a real joy and taught me how to be part of a team.&nbsp;It also taught me how performing together creates strong interpersonal bonds.&#8221;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Jamie says that UNC Charlotte was where she &#8220;grew up,&#8221; learning how to take on responsibility and accomplish great things. &#8220;I also met some amazing friends and faculty members that trusted me, took me in, and made me feel like I made a difference.&nbsp; There&#8217;s nothing like that boost of self esteem!&#8221;<strong>&nbsp;<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In her senior year, she was cast&nbsp;in a leading role in an opera and traveled to Europe. &#8220;These adventures were real gifts from the UNC Charlotte Music Department.&nbsp;Those memories stay with me to this day.&#8221; &nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Before moving&nbsp;to Indiana for graduate school at Notre Dame, Jamie&nbsp;taught middle school music for five&nbsp;years, sang with local church choirs, and performed locally in Connecticut&nbsp;with theatre and opera companies. She also travels to Remanso, Brazil, every few years to teach music to an impoverished community.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Jamie is impressed by the growth in the Music Department and encourages prospective students to check it out: &#8220;Without a doubt,&nbsp;be a part of this program.&nbsp;More than ever, you will receive a top-rate education while forming relationships that make Charlotte feel like home.&nbsp;You will be challenged to become a better person and inspired to become a leader in your community.&#8221;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Novice, Adrian Dominican Sisters<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":17,"featured_media":53015,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"no-sidebars.php","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"inline_featured_image":false,"_clt_a11y_last_scan":"1778694863","_clt_a11y_has_violations":"0","_clt_a11y_violations":"[]","_clt_a11y_suppressions":"","_clt_a11y_needs_validation":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[173],"tags":[43],"class_list":["post-51485","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-alumni-spotlights","tag-music"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.9 -
