Meet the Fine Arts Faculty

Shelbi McMullen completed her Master of Music at Southern Methodist University in 2018 and her Bachelor of Music at East Texas Baptist University in 2015. Throughout her undergraduate and graduate degrees, she sang in numerous concerts, operas, and musicals. She has studied and sung professionally in Italy, Austria, Germany, and the United States. Her work has included singing at events and in professional ensembles in the Dallas area, premiering new music, and freelance work such as liturgical singing, accompanying, composing and arranging, teaching theory, and teaching private lessons.

In her first year at Covenant, she taught Explorer and 1st grade music, 6th grade ukulele and theory, and assisted with the 6th-12th grade choirs.  Her greatest joys as a teacher are helping students find and love their God-given singing voices and making music as understandable, accessible, and worshipful as possible. Favorite hobbies include gardening, cooking, traveling, making beautiful music, and spending time with her husband, Anthony, and their precious son, Tristan.
