I started teaching music classes in 1992. As a public school music teacher, I have taught students in grades 1-12. I taught concert band, jazz band, marching band, string orchestra, full orchestra, and general music. I have conducted a women's chorale and taught college as well.

These skills I also apply to my private lessons to customize for one-on-one students so they get the most out of their musical learning.

For adults, we can develop a lesson plan together that develops your skills in the direction and repertoire that you enjoy. Read More
