Catherine Jones
Before coming to Cochran Music School I spent over 10 years in Human Resources. When I became pregnant with my second child I decided to leave human resources to become a stay at home mom. I have 2 children Daniel and Katelynn who have both attended Cochran Music School, just as Daniel was getting ready to go into Kindergarten an opportunity became available at Cochran. I have always enjoyed all genres of music, I played instruments and did colorguard in high school. I have been a teacher with Cochran Music School since August 2016, being apart of this program has been the most rewarding thing I have done professionally. When I'm not teaching I like to read, cook, watch my daughter doing gymnastics, hanging out with my family and I am Disney obsessed.
Devin Doty
Hello! My name is Devin Doty and I am a proud wife and mother of three wonderful children: my daughter Lincoln and identical twin boys Elias and Crew. I have a BA from the University of Oklahoma in Communication with a minor in Nonprofit Organizational Strategies, previously working for The United Way of Central Oklahoma as a campaign coordinator. My daughter began attending Cochran Music Preschool when the twins were born, and I was fascinated with the programs and how much she developed not only socially and academically, but also how much confidence and self-esteem she gained from the process of learning songs and performing on stage. I was initially asked if I would be interested in volunteering with the Superstars Class with set design and it was then I realized that this was a passion of mine that I had not yet discovered. I have always had a love of music and performance and working with children so, I am honored to now be teaching at Cochran Music Preschool and helping students explore their creativity and discover their potential and abilities.
