After returning to Atlanta from Cincinnati, Simone joined our Development Committee in the fall of 2015, assisting in our most successful fundraiser thus far. She then served as Business Manager for the past year before accepting the position of Executive Director.
As a visionary leader, Simone is focused on building a stronger foundation in program management and fiscal security to ensure the longevity of Peach State Opera as Georgia’s premier touring opera company. Simone is looking forward to collaborating with Artistic Director and founder Evelyn Hughes, the Board of Directors, cast, crew, and volunteers to fulfill our mission and vision in bringing opera to underserved communities.
