I'm a passionate instructor who cares deeply about a students education. In 2015, I graduated from West Johnston High School as drum captain in my band program.

My teaching experience has been for as long as I've been playing. Before studying any particular type of pedagogical approach, I've always had the gift and desire to share what I know with others.

To me, every student is first a person. I make it my primary responsibility as a teacher to connect with my students in a healthy, authentic, and supportive way.
