Meet Your Director

Mrs. Ashley Steele brings a passion for music and over 18 years of teaching experience to the OCMS Chorus. A native of North Carolina, she recently relocated to Georgia and is excited to share her love of choral music with her new community.

​

Mrs. Steele earned her Bachelor of Science in Music Education from Chowan University and her Master of Music in Music Education from the University of North Carolina at Greensboro. Since beginning her career in 2007, she has taught K–12 choir and theatre, inspiring students to grow as musicians, performers, and confident individuals.

​

When she’s not in the classroom, Mrs. Steele enjoys spending time with her husband, Jonathan, and their six energetic dogs.

 

She believes music has the power to connect people, build community, and change lives — one song at a time.
