As your piano teacher, I aim to provide a warm, supportive, and engaging learning environment with honest yet positive feedback to help students become confident and self-motivated. Listening, evaluating, and learning how to use those observations to improve the way we play are all skills that I encourage my students to use to become independent learners. Every student has a unique set of abilities and way of learning, which is something to be embraced. Read More

I took guitar with Michael Engberg there for two years and also took fundamentals of music, music business, music technology, and a song writing class. I transferred over to Metropolitan State University of Denver and began my Bachelors degree sequence under the wing of Alex Komodore. I graduated from Metro in May 2014 with a Bachelors Degree in Classical Guitar Performance, and the experience thus far has been amazing. I love to teach and I love to learn about music as well as people who desire to be musicians. Read More

Nothing is more satisfying than seeing students passionately pursue and succeed in the musical goals they set for themselves. I encourage students to set smaller, individual goals that can help them reach the larger goals they may have. Each student is unique and all students deserve to learn in the mode or format that is most effective. It is my role to both welcome the uniqueness of each student as well as offer multiple styles from which students can learn. Read More

I was then invited to move back to my college town of Brookings, South Dakota to be their middle school band director.

I began teaching lessons as early as high school. It started out as a way to mentor younger students in my school district and get them ready for auditions for orchestras in high school. I then began to take other students and continued to do so throughout my undergrad. I have had students ranging from age 3 to age 15 before, but youre never too old to start learning music! A students experience with a teacher can make or break their interest in music. Read More

My students thrive on goal setting. From the very first lesson, we work together to set clear, meaningful objectives that guide our learning journey. We revisit these goals regularly, tracking progress and adjusting as needed to keep students motivated and on track. I tailor my approach to each individual, recognizing that every student learns differently. Accomplishments, whether big breakthroughs or small wins, are celebrated, as each is a step toward the overall goal and a reason to feel proud. Read More
