Kath is all about the bells…and bell people! Known for her creative teaching style, clear directing, and engaging compositions, she has led scores of events across the US and in Canada and Japan. She started ringing in high school, and her first directing experience was at her church with youth and teens, which turned into an almost 30-year gig. She also taught handbells in the classroom for 5th-8th graders for 18 years and presently directs Gloria Dei (an adult church group) and Mosaic Handbell Ensemble (an advanced non-profit community group). Long an outspoken cheerleader for the Guild, Kath served on the Area 3 Board for eight years and currently coordinates both the Area 3 Chime Loan program and the Handbells in Education column in Overtones. Her publishing company “ringTrue Handbell Music” offers a wide swath of well-crafted music from L1 to L5, solos to multiple choir pieces.
