Assistant Professor of Music
Since coming to Lee in the fall of 2000, Donald has taught in the areas of church music, music theory and piano.  In previous years, he also conducted the Ladies of Lee and the Chapel Choir.  His passion is to train musicians who will excel in music ministry, their knowledge of music theory and their relationship with the Lord.

After graduating from Lee, Donald attended the Florida State University and received a M.M. in Music Theory. His primary research was on tonal coherence in Verdi’s Requiem.  Currently, Donald is completing a D.M.A. in Sacred Music from the University of Memphis.  His dissertation focuses on the history of the Tennessee Music and Printing Company’s Church Hymnal (the old red-back), as well as the history of gospel music and its composers.

His work experience includes several years of music ministry at churches in Tallahassee, Florida, and Olive Branch, Mississippi.  The son of a former missionary, his ministry overseas has included serving as a guest lecturer at the Church of God Seminary in Moscow, Russia, and as an assistant teacher at the European Bible Seminary in Rudersberg, Germany.

In the summer of 2002, he married the former Shannon Bishop.  They are proud parents of Jackson Todd born on February 22, 2004.
