Andrea Alexander

Organist & Pianist

Music has been instilled in my siblings and I since the tender age of four. We grew up in a Christian Methodist Episcopal church, which is where our skills as church musicians began. Once we became comfortable with different styles of music, we branched out in the community to share our musical abilities with other congregations and hopefully add a special touch to their worship.

The first church I have ever played for on my own was an Episcopal church. After getting the hang of being out on my own, I was blessed with the opportunity to play for a plethora of faith traditions over the years. Some include Presbyterian, United Methodist, Lutheran (Evangelical and Missouri Synods) and Catholic. Every church had its own unique differences, and I enjoyed each and every one immensely. I believe that just as long as my music touches even just one person, then I have done my job successfully. This is where my passion comes from: pouring my soul into my music and being able to turn notes on a piece of paper into a story whether it is achieved through my interpretation, or a slightly different one by the listener.

In addition to my commitment to music, I am currently a Product Development Chemist at Dow Corning Corporation.
