MUSIC DIRECTOR

His responsibilities also include programming all service music, song-leading each Sunday’s congregational hymns, and coordinating with guest musicians.
EXECUTIVE DIRECTOR
“Fog King”
Jeremy has served as the “Fog King” (executive director) of the San Francisco-based barbershop chorus Fog City Singers since November 2022.
He has worked tirelessly since then in this role, first getting the chorus out of a post-quarantine funk and then elevating them to new heights. Fog City proudly exists today as one of the top ten choruses in the Barbershop Harmony Society.
BARITONE
Jeremy sings Baritone professionally as a Full Member of Volti, a small chamber chorus in San Francisco dedicated to the discovery, creation and performance of new vocal music.
He also sings Baritone (same part name, wholly different style) with Western Addition, San Francisco’s most distinguished barbershop quartet of the past decade. They like to dazzle audiences with their close harmony and lively performance energy.
RECORDING ENGINEER
Jeremy has used the education he received at Stanford’s Center for Computer Research in Music and Acoustics (CCRMA) to work as a recording engineer for campus ensembles Mixed Company, Fleet Street, and the Stanford Chamber Chorale.
Some of his projects include the Chamber Chorale’s virtual performance of “Hail, Stanford Hail” for the university’s 2020 commencement ceremony, Mixed Company’s 2024 EP, “Skipping Beats”, and various learning tracks for the Fog City Singers.
EDUCATOR
While working as a long-term substitute teacher at Silverado Middle School in Napa during the 2022-23 school year, Jeremy had the privilege of teaching his own digital audio elective course for sixth grade students.
In this course, entitled “Fundamentals of Digital Audio”, Jeremy taught these students how to work in a Digital-Audio Workstation (DAW), use virtual instruments, basic recording techniques, and apply filters and effects.
