About Mr. Saunders

Hello everyone, my name is Mr. Saunders!

I was born and raised in Pueblo, Colorado. I have been involved in different choirs and different stage productions throughout mylife. In 2010, I was a member of the Colorado All-State Honor Choir. In my sophomore year of high school, I auditioned for choir and has been involved in music ever since. I have been a lead role in Bye Bye Birdie, Once Upon a Mattress, The Wedding Singer, Guys and Dolls,  Grease, Personals and most recently, Tevye in Fiddler on the Roof. 

I graduated in 2014 with his Bachelor's degree in Music Performance from Colorado State University-Pueblo. I am currently pursuing my Master's of Music Education degree at Colorado State University-Pueblo.

I enjoy relaxing, watching movies, TV shows and traveling. My  all time favorite movies are Star Wars: Return of the Jedi and School of Rock. Some of my favorite cartoons include Pokemon, Batman (from the 90s) and The Flash. I have traveled to Luxembourg, France, Switzerland, Italy, Germany, Mexico and Canada. My favorite countries are Italy and Germany because of the food! 

I'm Jewish and I love learning about and teaching people about Jewish heritage through music. I have an older sister that owns a New York style deli called Schlep's Sandwiches with her husband. My father is a dentist that makes dentures and my mother works at Olive Garden.
