Business Operations Manager

CATHY LANIGAN recently retired from a career in IT, most recently in solution development and sales enablement for a major software vendor, but her passion has always been music and in particular, choral singing. Her first experience singing in a choir was as a 4th grader in public school, when she joined the school choir and was immediately hooked.

Cathy holds an undergraduate degree in music education as a voice major from SUNY at Fredonia, and a Master’s degree in Computer Science from New York Institute of Technology. Cathy currently sings with a number of choirs and in addition to founding Viva Bach Peterborough and serving as President and Executive Director, she has served on a number of boards, including the Monadnock Chorus, Zenith Ensemble, Music On Norway Pond, Grand Monadnock Youth Choir and Choral Arts New England.

She enjoys gardening, and spending time with her husband Steven and their family. They have a golden retriever named Bernie and 2 corgis named Duke and Billy.
