My teaching experience goes all the way back to 2003, when I was a percussion section leader in junior high school.

This involved both teaching groups of my peers but also giving individual attention to anyone who needed the extra help. From 2008-2012, during my undergraduate degree, I also began officially teaching private lessons through the University of Indianapolis' Community Music Center. Read More
