Music

From beginning my aspiring opera career eating copious amounts of Mrs. Lovett’s meat pies in Sondheim’s Sweeney Todd with Gustavus (2017) to now singing in my not first, but second show with the Gilbert and Sullivan Very Light Company, I've discovered a wonderful musical outlet singing all around the Twin Cities metro area with VocalEssence, Lord of Life Lutheran Church, St Olaf Catholic Church, River Hills United Methodist Church, and anywhere else I am needed.

Performance Reviews

"The Page (Jacob Koshiol) has a small song when he catches Mother stealing, and I wish he had more. Koshiol has a great voice and I will keep my eye out for all five of these adult leads so I can hear more of them."
