Michelle Perini has recently graduated with an MBA in Business Management and also has a BA in music, with a minor in French language. Her music degree includes a focus on voice with piano as a secondary instrument. Michelle has been singing and playing the piano since she was 4 years old, growing up in New Mexico. By high school graduation, she had completed over 10 years of piano guild, 7 all-state choir experiences, 2 musicals with major roles, was awarded top district soloist for South Eastern New Mexico, had sung across Europe with Sound of America Honor Band and Chorus, performed with an honor choir at Carnegie Hall in NYC, among other exciting musical endeavors. During her 13+ years of piano experience, Michelle learned the classical style and could help guide someone towards guild, a proficiency exam, or a recital.

Throughout her collegiate experience, Michelle performed with the ACU and UNT operas in chorus roles and also as a lead role for an operetta in Germany with ACU. She was a semi-finalist and finalist the two years she attended the NATS competition. She participated in multiple collegiate choirs for 5 years, including section leader, librarian, and soloist positions throughout that time. Michelle worked as a lead singer for a large Catholic church in Dallas-Forth Worth for 2 years and now volunteers as a lead singer / choir member most weekends while finishing her MBA and searching for a job in Corporate America.

Michelle's philosophy for success is to persist with 100% effort in all she does, and to have the passion to roll up her sleeves to do a job well done while appreciating constructive criticism from others for continuous improvement. She loves and looks forward to continuing to share the gift of music with others.
