I strive to be on the cutting edge of current thinking and scholarship in the field through active membership in professional associations, conducting research leading to publications and presentations, and attending professional development workshops concerning Orff Schulwerk, multicultural music education, classroom technology, problem-based learning, creativity, and other contemporary issues. My continued education has included the study of music and dance in Cuba and Ghana. I have served on numerous university, college, and department committees, which has given me experience in cross-campus communication, decision making, and collaboration. I work closely with my friends in the African Student Association, who call me "Babatunde," (which means "Father who has come back to us") in order to offer high quality cultural programs such as Global Fusion, International Fiesta, and especially African Night. I direct the African Student Association's African Drum Ensemble and also facilitate numerous community drum circle events.
