Music & Band Teacher

Hello there! My name is Jake Brennan and I am honored to be joining the staff and community here at St. John XXIII in Port Washington! I was born in Merrick, New York and moved with my family to Grafton about 16 Years Ago!

I previously worked and still currently at Annette Meyer Studios teaching lessons privately in Grafton!

Favorite Things, I first and foremost love all of my family and their diverse gifts and talents God has blessed them with. Seeing them every day and hearing how their lives are always brings me joy! I very much enjoy cooking up meals (Italian Ones mostly). I absolutely love visiting my parents’ dogs, Cookie and Luna and walking other dogs around Grafton! I also have fun playing music in a garage band I am a part of and composing music in my free time.

I graduated from Concordia University Wisconsin, and received my Bachelors from Music Education in May of 2024.

In the classroom, I love to help encourage students to learn more and understand music and its ability to connect the world. I want to help students achieve a greater level of performance so they can succeed in concerts and their instrument mastery moving forward in the future!

I cannot wait to be sharing my love of music with the students in my classes.
