I'm a creative and versatile violin/viola instructor who loves working with students of any age! I graduated from UNC Asheville in 2012 with a degree in Violin Performance, where I developed a special passion for chamber music. I currently perform with the Charlotte Civic Orchestra, where I have sat in as Concertmaster occasionally. I've had the oppurtunity to take Suzuki teacher development courses and register as a Suzuki teacher with the SAA. Read More

I believe that music should be fun. I think students are more engaged and willing to practice when they are actually enjoying what they are learning, and music is an amazing thing, so it should be engaging! I am a lighthearted and easy going teacher, and I am also experienced in many different areas of music. This allows me to really tailor my lessons to my students needs. I will make sure to pick repertoire that is both interesting to you and educational, whatever the genre may be! Read More

I believe everyones musical journey is different and that these nuances should be embraced. Every student follows the reoccurring desire to make music for as long as it takes them before they actually begin to find their own musical voice. Because of this, my teaching style is largely based on helping students make the music that inspires them. Often times though this begins an endless quest that builds upon itself as new abilities are gained and new possibilities explored. Read More

Instruments: Piano, Violin

For beginning piano students, I typically start with Faber's Piano Adventures. I also use these books as a foundation for intermediate students. After students have grasped the basics, I will talk with them to determine their interest in different musical styles and songs. I will then add in supplementary material to go alongside the Piano Adventures books to give them a broader range of musical ability. Violin lessons are a combination of the Suzuki Method and Strings Builders. Read More

Instruments: Violin

I have been playing the violin for the past nine years and have had four excellent violin instructors, each with different backgrounds and approaches to violin instruction. Because of this, I have had well-rounded education in the violin which is a great benefit in my violin teaching. Up to this point, I have taught violin to six different students and have seen each of them make remarkable progress. Not only have my students enjoyed their time with me, but I have also looked forward to and planned for each of their lessons throughout the week. Read More
