Mrs. Sienko’s professional music career led her to sing the National Anthem at Camden Yard in Baltimore, on the Rialto stage, throughout Chicagoland, Wisconsin, and the East coast.

Stacy’s philosophy is simple: To create meaningful and beautiful music that enhances the worship experience. Because of her participation in our community over the last 7 years, she is understanding of our congregation and what they look for in worship and parish life. Her main objective is to be a listener and advocate for our parishioners and provide music that is becoming to all. She believes that she can give our parish a unique musical voice, grow our youth music ministry program, engage our congregation musically and, in turn, help us grow in our own faith. She has an all-inclusive mindset and will work with anyone interested in music ministry. Her teacher-based leadership skills give her an innate understanding of how to nurture others’ musical interests while being cognizant of different styles, abilities, and comfort levels.
