My wife and I am now busy taking care of our two children, Elizabeth 10 and Rachel 3. I am President of an electronic scientific instruments representative firm.

I am also the community arts coordinator at MHSPY, designing art/music therapy groups and services for kids utilizing the arts.

I am currently living in St. Louis, Missouri. I have had a wonderful and varied music career, from performing, to teaching, to being the Executive Director of a Music Conservatory. Currently I am the Director of Music and Liturgy for a large Catholic parish. The GBYSO trip to the UK was a highlight for me.
Seth Barad, Trombone
After high school, I attended Tufts and Harvard Business School, got married, and worked for 20 years as an executive in management consulting and financial services firms, while living in Boston, New York, London, and San Francisco at various times. In 2000, I left the "for profit" world and began a second career as a consultant to nonprofits and a part-time lecturer in two MBA programs in the San Francisco Bay Area, where I live with my wife and two boys. I attend San Francisco Symphony concerts with my elderly parents, who share my fond memories of my teenage years as a high school musician.
