I am a dedicated and motivated instructor with over 10 years of public school and private experience in Texas, Massachusetts, and Florida. I graduated from SMU's Meadows School of the Arts (Dallas, TX) with degrees in Music Education and Saxophone Performance. As a performer, I have substituted with the Dallas Wind Symphony, performed with MIT's Balinese Gamelan, Gamelan Galak-Tika, and played bansuri (Indian flute) with my husband on tabla at various Indian weddings and venues.

I then studied music theory so I could write better music. It cleared up the missing links from my "self taught" days and set the pace for me as a musician.

I love seeing my students apply what they’ve learned in their lesson and become passionate about their music education. I am warm and friendly yet still firm and hands on in my approach to teaching so that students are able to enjoy lessons but still know that they are coming to lessons to learn something. I support the student with structuring lessons based off of the needs of the student as well as student/parent goals. Read More

Everyone is different, and I want to make sure that each student gets the best learning experience for them! Read More

Instruments: Trumpet

First in a lesson, I will go over what the student already knows, and what they have been practicing, as well as what they would like to practice.

I understand that not everyone will find playing a new instrument natural, and that's okay. Read More
