CEO/Executive Director Experience

Jacoby Hickerson is a founding member of the Laguna Beach Chamber Singers, having been integral to the ensemble's journey since its early years. He was a key driver in the organization’s formal transition to a 501(c)(3) nonprofit in 2014, ensuring the group’s artistic passion was matched by a strong organizational foundation. Serving as President, Jacoby blends his lifelong passion for choral music with over 20 years of professional experience as a Software Engineer. He brings a tech-forward perspective to the organization, focusing on operational efficiency, digital infrastructure, and long-term sustainability. Having helped guide LBCS through key organizational milestones, Jacoby is dedicated to ensuring the “business of the arts” is as precise and harmonious as the music itself.
