Im an elementary music teacher based in New York City! I moved to New York just over 8 months ago from Louisiana. I have loved getting to experience the creativity and art scene in the city, and am excited to further my teaching experience here. Before moving, I taught voice lessons for 6 years! I have taught all ages, from 3 to 90 (and am willing to expand!) My goal is to help people to understand their voices, and to just have fun. Read More

With knowledge of what the student wants to learn on the guitar we can accomplish any goals between individual practice and lessons. Read More

After college I continued freelance teaching and have had many students succeed in creating and working in their own way. Read More
