Instruments: Piano Voice Organ
As stated, I have taught students of all ages, from pre-K to adults. I first began teaching while I was in college and have taught ever since. While most of my career has been spent teaching privately in fine arts academies and in students' homes, for the past 7 years I have taught high school choir in Keller ISD. I love to see my students succeed and have those "aha!" moments when their individual practice begins to pay off. Read More

Music lessons will certainly broaden the students knowledge of music. It has been proven through scientific study that the study of music will improve the individuals cognitive ability and aids in brain development. Children who study music develop higher math and problem solving skills. Age is not a factor as we are never to old to learn. My students range in age from 5 years old to well into their 70’s, many of whom simply want to improve their skills or recapture the joy of making music. The study and enjoyment of music can and often becomes a life long adventure whether its just for fun or as a career. Read More

I gained the degree of doctor of musical arts in clarinet performance and pedagogy from the University of Colorado at Boulder, held a position at Aletheia University for 16 years, and have more than30 years of experience in teaching students at all ages and levels. During my college years, I have studied children's development and psychology and had research and speech onfour Music systems in the world. Besides teaching clarinet, piano, and saxophone, I also have experience in Orff, which is an education system to help children learn music in life. Read More
Instruments: Piano
I have been playing the piano for 10 years, but have been involved in the musical institution for much longer than that. I have been shaping minds young and old in piano technique and music theory for the last seven years. And, I believe I am an ideal teacher for anyone just starting out to those who are trying to continue from where they left off. I have been afforded the pleasure of performing in many of my University's recitals and concerts as a solo pianist and ensemble piece. Read More
Instruments: Piano Voice Cello Bass Guitar Keyboard
I am a fun and passionate teacher when it comes to music. When attending college for my performance degree I had thought that I would not want to teach others and just focus on performing. And as much as I love to perform I have found a love for passing along my enthusiasm and knowledge of music. I have worked as a Pre-K teacher for 7 years before deciding to try to make giving lessons a full-time thing, which I am still working towards. Read More
Instruments: Piano
My teaching experience dates back to when I was in middle school, and I taught my neighbor's kids. Since then, I have had several piano students. I have also worked for a school district as a Substitute Teacher where I had the opportunity to teach a variety of subjects and work with a multitude of students. I would like to expand on my private teaching experience, as teaching and playing piano have always come naturally to me. Read More
Instruments: Piano
I am an experienced, professional piano instructor who loves teaching piano, the foundational instrument, to children and adults who have a desire to learn and pursue their music. I have lived a life filled with the joy of music and consider it a passion to share this joy. I am from a musical family, my husband is a professional musician and music is a part of my daily life. I have collaborated musically in church, weddings, accompanied choral groups, various bands, etc. over the years, but my true joy lies in teaching. Read More

Does music run in your family? Tell us a little about your musical family members.
Most of my family doesn’t play music, but my grandpa passed down an old Gibson archtop guitar when he died, and it’s become one of my signature musical colors in many of my projects.
When did you decide to become a professional musician? Was it a gradual decision or was there a defining moment for you?
When I was 18, I composed a 7 minute classical piece for full orchestra that was selected and performed by the Austin Symphony Orchestra, and that experience changed my life, inspiring me to pursue music not only as a personal art but as a major and career.
If you play more than one instrument, how did you decide to start playing the second? (Or 3rd, 4th, 5th, etc)!
I started on drums, but wanted to learn guitar because I wanted to be able to play and write whole songs with just one instrument, so I started picking up my mom’s old guitar. I eventually added bass guitar and electric guitar to help fill in for my church’s worship band. Later on I added classical guitar in high school to broaden my skills and learn more about the classical world in general. In college I took my first piano classes and lessons, since keyboard skills were becoming vital to my composing and arranging abilities. I picked up ukulele along the way just for fun, and in recent years have begun independent cello and violin studies, since they always seemed like they would be a rewarding challenge, and they are.
What is your favorite style/genre of music to play and why?
I love jamming to straight ahead rock and indie rock songs, the simpler the better. There’s something freeing about playing music that’s easy: it makes it more about the feeling and the message and less about impressing anybody.
If you weren't a musician what do you think you'd be doing instead?
I’d be a cowboy. I grew up with horses, love being outside, and always have an itch for a slightly dangerous adventure. Campfires, old songs, and sleeping under the stars–this is reminding me I should go camping more often, haha.
What is your dream piece to perform and why?
I’m not an advanced cellist, but it’s hard to imagine a richer experience than performing the Bach Cello suites. They are heartbreakingly beautiful, steel clad in their composition structure, and playful and enjoyable in their expression.
If you have a Music Degree, what is it in (Performance, Education, Musicology, Theory, Composition, etc) and why did you choose that degree?
My degree is in music composition, and I was primarily inspired by the great symphonies and film scores. I love telling stories through music, and film composing is a wonderful means of connecting with a wide audience at a deep level. Composition has also given me the opportunity to connect with musicians of many instruments and disciplines, as well as filmmakers, serving to expand my musical and storytelling perspective.
What does a normal practice session look like for you?
I warm up with scales and arpeggios with a metronome, no matter what instrument. For guitar I will also do additional exercises for the left hand. I’ll then dig into the piece I’m working on, going slowly over what I have under my belt so far, and even more slowly add another section. I’ll round out the practice by playing through all the sections together, as if it were a performance, and perhaps review a piece that’s familiar and practiced.
Do you use specific teaching methods or books? (Ex: Alfred, Bastion, Suzuki, Hal Leonard) Why did you choose them if you did?
I often use Bastion piano books, since that was introduced to me when I was learning. For guitar, especially for older intermediate students, I always recommend the book Fretboard Logic, since it gives wonderful insight into the design of the fretboard and gives you tools to improvise with command and intention.
