As a double-major in psychology and music, I combine both disciplines in my teaching to help students learn in a holistic, effective way. I love implementing research-based practice and performance techniques to help students at home and onstage. Healthy mindset is also one of my biggest priorities for my students, as I don't believe that one must sacrifice mental health in order to attain musical excellence. My goal is to create an environment where students feel safe, accomplished, challenged, and fulfilled. Read More

The result has been that I have trained hundreds of children to have fun playing music well, plus four of my child students have become national acts. Read More

I work with each student at whatever pace they are comfortable with encouraging them along the way. My purpose for teaching is to share not only my love of music with others but to see students become accomplished and successful musicians. Read More
