Heather Douglass - Board President

Music has always been a part of my life! Both of my parents love music and fostered that love of music in me and my siblings. Even so, it was a little bit of a shock when I made the change from my intended course of study, nursing, to music!

I studied music at Ricks College and graduated with a Bachelor of Music from Utah State University with a K-12 teaching certification. While at Utah State I studied voice with Mary Shearer from the Utah Festival Opera.

I was the Director of Choral Music at Davis Middle School in Evanston, Wyoming for 3 years before marrying my best friend, Matthew, and starting our family. We now have seven children, six with us and one angel in heaven. We have chosen to homeschool our family so every day is an adventure!

I was involved for many years as a teacher, Board Member, and MAT(Music, Art, Theater) Camp Director for Young Musicians, Inc (now The Arts, Inc) in Evanston, Wyoming. I sang with and served as Assistant Director for the American West Chamber Singers in Murray, Utah from 2012-2014, and have been a member of Anam Cara since 2017.

I love my family, my faith, my freedom, my friends, music, mentoring, nature, reading, and how I feel when I run (not while I’m actually running, but how I feel in general when I run on a regular basis).
