I'm a creative and motivated educator who loves sharing my passion for music with my students. I hold degrees in music performance from Eastern Michigan University and the University of Texas at Austin. I've been teaching privately and in the public school system in Austin for 7 years. Performing and teaching are my life's work and sharing the experiences I've had with my students helps them realize how music can positively impact their life.

I have been studying all aspects of flute culture since I discovered my father's old flute in a box when I was 7. I fell in love the first time I heard him play, and knew then that I would grow up to study music and perform. I began formal instruction in school at the age of 10, and quickly earned the top place in my beginners class. From then on I participated in the top ensemble of my middle and high schools, and went on to act as featured soloist for the concert and marching ensembles. I began teaching in my 8th grade year, taking on beginning flute students and continuing on with them as they grew in profficiency and eventually joined the ranks of the High School band program. During my time at Calallen High School, I taught private lessons, as well as conducted the Marching Band as Drum Major, and taught the entire ensemble. I continued to teach and give private instruction throughout my college experience. I began studying music performance in university in 2006, under the tutelage of Dr. Sara Gill. Dr. Gill had just returned from an amazing study abroad with Trevor Wye and his studio, and was able to offer cutting edge techniques. After my first year of University Dr. Gill moved, and I was subsequently passed to the instruction of the amazing Dr. Naomi Seidman. I studied under Dr. Seidman for the next 4 years of my education, and performed every semester in both the Concert ensembles and the Flute Choir at the music school. My Sophomore year of college I was elected President of the TAMUK Flute Choir, and helped to fund trips around the state to perform for students. I was also a performing member of the TAMUK Mariachi Javelina, and have performed with them in San Antonio for their annual competition for Mariachi Vargas.
Instruments:
I always look for a way so the student understands the miscommunication when learning a new subject. I ask many questions and make the student think. I help the student make physical and mental connections when learning something new.
Instruments:
My love of music began in first grade when I took my first music lesson, and it has only grown since! My greatest joy is connecting to others through music, and my goal is to cultivate a positive, inspiring, and creative teaching environment for students of any age or experience level. For the past 6 years, I have studied techniques to improve breathing, posture, and expression while reducing discomfort and minimizing the effects of performance anxiety. These techniques draw from Body Mapping, the Alexander Technique, the Feldenkrais Method and more, and have extensively improved my own performance and have helped my students improve immensely. Additionally, I have enjoyed a range of performance experiences in solo, chamber, and large ensemble settings, performing in casual concerts, formal recitals, auditions, master classes, and competitions.
