As the Cathedral Organist at Washington National Cathedral, he has performed at numerous significant national events, including the virtual service celebrating President Biden and Vice President Harris's inauguration. His distinguished career includes positions at Harvard University's Memorial Church, Saint Mark's Church in Philadelphia, and Trinity Episcopal Church in Princeton. A graduate of the prestigious Curtis Institute of Music with diplomas in both organ and harpsichord, Sheehan holds a Doctor of Musical Arts degree from Boston University and degrees from Westminster Choir College. In 2016, he was recognized as one of The Diapason's "20 under 30," marking him as a rising star in the organ performance world. His international performance career has taken him across the United States, Canada, and Europe, with notable appearances in Reykjavík, Toulouse, and Montréal.
