First I like to get a snap shot of the student's goals and sources of inspiration, once I figure that out I can tailor my instruction around their wants and needs.

I am a state-certified educator. I have private lesson experience, teaching students ages 5 to 45. My primary instrument is voice, and I love to help singers find their confidence through vocal technique and calming excercises. As well as teaching vocal technique, I love to help very young learners began to understand the world of music through aural language building.

I attained my M. Ed. in leadership and supervision at Antioch University. There I learned how better apply my teaching methods for more beneficial outcomes.  My most recent employment, with Nashville Public Schools (Music City!!!), afforded me the opportunity to teach modern band.
