In high school, I first started working with kids through Special Olympics, mission trips, and church. As an educator, I am soft-spoken, patient, and warm, creating an understanding environment. My expectations of my students, though high, are extremely clear. It is up to the educator to modify for every student. I believes that the importance of music in the schools allows students to connect with each art and more importantly, themselves, foster responsibility, and discover a potential lifelong joy in music making.

Mastery in discipline occurs upon finding the balance between your persistence and your passion. One of these elements cannot function without the other, like that of the technique and artistry of a musician. It is through these concepts that freedom of the instrument is attainable. I strive to provide insight that students at any level may apply to their technique. While the capacity of one's instrument may have limitations, growth within any style or genre ultimately relies on ones artistic decisions. Read More

As a piano teacher, my approach to education aligns with the Classical Model, emphasizing the development of critical thinking and listening skills alongside fundamental reading, writing, and thinking abilities. I believe in fostering a classroom environment that encourages participation and engagement, utilizing varied historical themes and musical materials to promote analysis of primary and secondary sources. To ensure all students can succeed, I provide a range of methods and assignments, including writing assignments, office hours, and exam review outlines. Read More
Instruments: Voice
For students who are starting off, no matter their age, I will first test their range so that I know what I am working with and then I will test how well they can match pitch. If they struggle with matching pitch I will then run exercises with them where we will start going over solfege in simple patterns so that they can start developing their voice and an understanding of pitches and a scale.

I been playing the piano since age 3 (over 40 years ago!). Since getting certified, I can play and teach all instruments, with piano being my primary instrument. I encourage regular practice and strive tocoordinate the students' schedule along with musical success. Parental involvement is essential. As little as reminding the student to practice daily! I look forward to meeting new students of all ages!! Read More
