Trumpet Lessons Davis County, UT

Instruments: Trumpet

I'm a quietly passionate instructor motivated by my love of music and my students. In 2016, I graduated from Brigham Young University with a Bachelor of Arts in English, with a Minor in Music. As an undergrad, I often found my love of music creeping into my major coursework-- including my thesis! I've loved practicing and performing for over a decade (which is also more than half of my life!).

I was fortunate in my junior year in high school to be asked by my high school band director if I would teach a beginning trumpet student of his. I took on the challenge, and I quickly discovered that I enjoyed teaching and seeing students grow from what I taught. I continued teaching students throughout my years in college and after.
