Jamie Bolduc

Jamie attended Plymouth State University where she received her Bachelors of Science in Music Education in 2002. In 2006, she chose to attain my Masters of Music in Music Education and attended Gordon College where she graduated in 2009. Jamie obtained her second Masters of Arts in Theatre through Regent University in May 2017.  During her training as an educator, she was trained as a vocalist, and has been singing since she was a very young child and brought her love of vocal music into herfirst job as a high school choral director in Alton, NH.  Jamie was introduced to Rhythm of NH when Voices of the 603 invited them to sing at their performance where her students were also performing.  Later, when she began teaching at Ellis School in 2017, she met one of our members who encouraged her to sing for some peers who were retiring.  From that point, she was hooked, she had to check them out.  In the summer of 2017, she attended the summer sing and have been singing with RNH ever since. 

"I love that I am able to bring my knowledge of music to others but also continue learning as this art form is vastly different from what you learn about in college.  I am a proud 5 year member who is now co-directing the chorus.  I look forward to many more years with RNH!"


Jamie has a young daughter and loving husband, as well as two cats, and resides in Fremont.
