I believe anyone has the ability to learn music. I feel it is my duty to help my students discover their own musical path. It is my passion to show you, you have the ability to overcome any obstacles you may face in music. On May 1st I graduated from Weber State University with my Bachelors in K-12 Music Education. I got the chance to be instructed by great minds like Viktor Uzur (known worldwide for the Richter/Uzur Duo) and work along side talented students like Fan Ya Lin (pianist with a professorship at Julliard).

For all beginner students, I begin with the Essential Elements books. Once fingering and bowing have been introduced, I begin incorporating level-appropriate scales. These etudes and scales are vital for learning the technique necessary for more advanced pieces. Once the student has completed the first Essential Elements book, we then select a piece for them to play, and keep this as our main focus while continuing to work on scales and etudes. Read More

So I set out on a journey to answer those questions. I devoted my life to learning music, moved to Bellingham to study music and composition at WWU, studying the science and art of playing music with emotion, and writing music that makes my audience feel what I want them to feel. In-between now and then, my music career took a lot of twists and turns, ups and downs, and ins and outs. Read More

My teaching experience started in 2010 during my college freshman year when I was employed by the Music Institute of North Texas and the Carrolton Independent School District as a private violin instructor. On top of violin pedagogy, I was also employed by the University of North Texas Learning Center as a Supplemental Instructor for Music Theory. When teaching, I try to incorporate basic music theory into performance, as I feel both are important to gain a greater understanding and appreciation for muisc. Read More

I have worked with a very wide range of students of all levels and ages from three year old beginners to adult learners and everything in between! I do my best to make lessons fun and interesting for each student by tailoring the lessons to their needs and interests - in addition to classical music I am happy to incoporate music from other genres too. My goal is to show every student that they are capable of finding joy in making music. Read More

My lesson structure is very flexible and has plenty of room for input from the student. My job as your teacher will be to give you technique building excercises and songs that will sharpen the fundamentals of playing your instrument. There are 3 parts to a lesson that I always like to touch on. 1) technique and warmups, 2) assigned material designed to be the stepping stones to your personal goals. 3) something that the student has picked out or has special interest in.

What advice do you have about practicing effectively?
Create- and write down- goals that are attainable in however long you have to practice. There is no need for the frustration of cramming too much into too little time; if you feel crunched for time, limit the number or overall difficulty of goals you are aiming for. Many students cite past frustration in practicing in their reasoning for not wanting to practice. By creating a checklist of smaller goals, students can see that they really are accomplishing a lot even when it may not feel like it.
What do you think is the hardest thing to master on your instrument?
Learning to hold the instrument and bow! These are two of the first things we learn, and both are things that professionals still tinker and experiment with no matter how many years they have been playing- I might make the argument we never quite master it, but it definitely becomes second nature after a bit of time spent with the instrument. Neither the violin bow or instrument hold are things that feel completely natural at first, and a long time is spent reducing tension and making everything as comfortable as possible to reduce injury.
What is your dream piece to perform and why?
I would love to play in a production of Les Miserables. The show was one of the first I fell in love with in my early years of learning about theatre and the orchestral parts add so much depth to an already engaging story. In terms of strictly orchestral music, I hope to get the chance to play Gershwin's "An American In Paris" sometime in my career. I think it's a piece of music that can be enjoyed by longtime listeners of classical music and those who might just be getting a first introduction to the form. The blues melody in the middle has always held a special place in my heart.
What is your favorite style/genre of music to play and why?
My favorite way to participate in music is as a musician for local musical theatre, especially musical theatre tailored to kids and young adults. Being able to contribute to the art forms of singing, acting, and dancing, further drives my belief that all art (not just music) can impact young lives in a meaningful way. Through the process of creating a musical theatre product, we learn about all the components that go into effective storytelling. I became a much more expressive and flexible player in my time playing musicals.
