I knew I was going to become a music teacher at the age of ten, so I absolutely understand how much of an impact teachers have on students from a young age.

Working one-on-one with students of all ages affords me the opportunity to get to know my students and to become even more invested in their success. Read More

My teaching experience dates back to 2014, when I taught massage therapy for a year. During that time, I realized that I have a true passion for sharing my knowledge with others.

As someone who has been a student for many years, I understand the importance of feeling safe to take risks, make mistakes, and grow from these experiences. Read More
