Since graduating from Bethany College in 2010, I taught at a music studio in Wheeling, WV. Unfortunately, the studio closed down. Along with teaching there, I was giving private lessons from home and continue to do so. Teaching is something that gives me the opportunity to pass on what I've learned so far and also to instill students with the opportunity to continue a journey of lifelong learning with music. I've had so many great experiences with music and teaching also allows me to help students create their own experiences with music that could impact their life in a positive way. Read More

I come to teaching with the understanding that every student is different. We will try to get at each problem in a variety of ways, and see what works for you.

Since lesson time is limited, I won't waste time telling stories or lecturing you about different musical concepts. Read More
