Sarah Bonomo

Hi friends, it’s me, Sarah. I’m a co-founder and clarinetist of One Found Sound and I’m sort of like the wizard behind the curtain at the end of Wizard of Oz (except don’t ask me to help with your technology). I help organize our events, including making sure the bar is stocked (you’re welcome). When I’m not performing or sitting in traffic I love baking and finding furry creatures to snuggle.

Georgeanne Banker

Hi! I'm Georgeanne and I am One Found Sound's copywriter, graphic designer, and lead grant writer. I also love arranging music for OFS's gala and holiday events, as well as preparing our program notes and pre-concert talks. I’m a proud mom to my hilarious and active little toddler, and outside of my work here at OFS I am a freelance writer and play historical and modern bassoons with ensembles across the country.

Scott Padden

Hi there, I’m Scott! I play bass and I co-founded the orchestra all the way back in 2013! I engineer and mix the sound for our recordings and when I’m not in the orchestra, I drive around the country in a van and play drums with a band called Goodnight Texas. When I’m doing neither of those things, I have my own band called Television Spies. A fun fact about me is that I was at Matt Cain’s perfect game in 2012.

Katherine Cox

Hi I’m Katherine! I’m passionate about building connections and creating opportunities that bring people together. I supports One Found Sound’s mission by helping bridge the gap between artists, donors, and the community, ensuring the orchestra’s continued success. With a background in public relations and nonprofit development, I am dedicated to making resources and experiences more accessible for all. When not working behind the scenes, I love exploring the outdoors—whether it's hiking scenic trails or discovering hidden gems in the Bay Area.

Claudia Mulet

Hi there, my name is Claudia, and I’m a Cuban multidisciplinary artist with a passion for visual art and directing. I have the pleasure of working with OFS in multiple capacities, creating visuals, stage managing, and even handling some social media because, hey, we have to stay on top of it, right? Outside of OFS, I’m a Broadway performer with a growing passion for directing theater and musicals.

Lalita Pérez Acosta

Hi! I'm Lalita, One Found Sound’s Director of Development. One of my favorite parts of my job is connecting with our incredible community—whether it’s sharing our music, organizing events, or finding new ways to support OFS’s bold, artist-driven mission. I love reaching out to people and building relationships that help sustain and grow our work. As a double bassist, I perform with ensembles across San Francisco and have played with orchestras in Mexico and the U.S. I’m also passionate about music education and making the arts more accessible to everyone. When I’m not making music or creating connections, you’ll probably find me exploring San Francisco, ever in search of the perfect cup of coffee, admiring the city’s architecture, or hiking a scenic trail. I’m so excited to be part of OFS—can’t wait to see you at a concert!

 

the founders

 One Found Sound was founded in 2013 by five friends focused on changing the status quo of classical music through the power of collaboration and expressive freedom.

After a successful first gathering involving some Beethoven, wine, amazing musicians, and good friends, founders Georgeanne Banker, Sarah Bonomo, Scott Padden, Emily Kriner, and Sasha Launer knew that we just needed you, our audience, to make this experience whole! Since its inception, OFS has brought the magic of truly collaborative music to listeners in the Bay Area and beyond.
