Janet Ankomah
Janet Ankomah is so excited to continue to work with choristers at BYC and take on the new role as a Co-Director of the Prelude Choirs with Heidi McIlroy!
Janet received her Bachelor's Degree in Music Education from Ashland University in Ashland, OH in 2013 and is currently working on her Masters in Special Education at Eastern Washington University. She also earned her Kodály certification from the Southeast Texas Kodály Certification Program in Houston, Texas.
Ohio is home for Janet, but she began her career in Houston, Texas teaching K-5 general music for eight years before starting her next big adventure teaching K-5 general music for Renton School District in the fall of 2022. She loves making music with her students every day, but she also loves orcas, dinosaurs, and her two cats, Louise and Angelica.
