Seems I've always been a teacher, even when I didn't realize it; from my school days as first chair helping other students, through college where I taught for the Southern Nevada School of Music and at Vesleys Music Conservatory, through the time I received my first certified public school teaching position and after that as a business owner with employees, I have been teaching and learning. Currently I teach Instrumental, Vocal music and Speech/Drama in Oklahoma as a certified classroom teacher. I have produced State Speech Champions and a vocal student who received the coveted Red Card to appear on The VOICE tv show. I believe the forestated exemplifies my passion for teaching and having young people do more than they might think.
Instruments:
For beginning younger students I begin by working a very short time with parents to assure them their children are in a positive learning environment. Parents of small children are encouraged to attend each lesson with their child. The core principles of musicality, breathing, and perspective are taught. The next step is sound and movement. When these skills are mastered I help students get comfortable with their instruments and then begin playing. Older children just beginning to enter the world of music will begin with the fundamentals of musicianship, sound, and breathing. From there I will progress to rhythm, pitch, and notation. When these skills are mastered I will get the students comfortable with their instruments and begin playing. Students that have a background in music with their instruments will be assessed to determine the level of teaching required. After their skills have been assessed each student will have a plan of action with specific goals to met their target competency. During alls lessons for all age groups I emphasize practice requirements and time management.
Instruments:
I have both a Bachelor and Master degree in music from the University of Tulsa and the University of Oklahoma. I have performed with Tulsa Opera Chorus, Tulsa Oratorio Chorus, and I have also sung leading roles in opera productions at the University of Tulsa, the University of Oklahoma, and Land of Enchatment Opera Institute. While earning my Bachelor's degree, I worked as a cantor & Assistant of Music at St. Cecilia Church in Claremore for 5 years. Beginning in the Fall of 2013, I have worked as the director of music and organist at First Christian Church of Moore.

I've taught in New York City, Los Angeles, and Oklahoma since 2009. In New York City, I teach theatre technique at a musical theatre school. In Los Angeles, I teach Alba Technique at an Actor's Workshop. In Oklahoma, working with children, I've taught ages 6-adult, directing musical and theatrical productions like Grease, Les Miserables, Much Ado About Nothing, and The War of the Worlds. I also teach acting - theatrical, classical, and on-camera - and approach singing from a "storytelling first" approach.
