Music Theatre Wichita

Originally from Tempe, Arizona, Carter enjoyed a dual career as a singer (performing a wide range of repertoire from baroque to musical theatre) and voice teacher (serving on the faculties of Southwestern College, Butler Community College, and Bethany College) before pivoting towards arts administration in 2021. Prior to joining the full-time staff at Music Theatre Wichita, she served as the Manager of Marketing and Communications for the Wichita Symphony. Carter holds degrees from Arizona State University and Wichita State University and has called Wichita home since 2015. She is thrilled to be a part of this organization and help connect donors and corporate sponsors with the incredible projects MTWichita produces. Carter shares her love of musical theatre with her husband, Michael Mays, who is the choir teacher at Wichita Northwest High School. Carter and Mike live in Northwest Wichita with their daughter Goldie and their dog Juniper.
