Instruments:
I start by going over the fundamentals of good posture, breath support, and awareness of the students body. While doing this I introduce practicing techniques and repertoire to encourage the student to continue to work on their skills in their own time. I like to find out the interests of students, not only musically, but generally to better understand their goals and work towards them as appropriate.
Instruments:
I grew up surrounded by music, theatre, sports and teaching; Mom was a music major, her instrument was piano, and Dad was a theatre major (who went to college on a football scholarship) and he played the drums. My earliest memories are of Mom playing the piano, Dad drumming, and me dancing all over the living room. I have been singing since I could talk and I started taking piano lessons around the age of 6. I was in choir and band all throughout middle/high school and went to college unsure if I wanted to focus on music or theatre. I was very active in both departments and continued to take private piano and voice lessons but theatre won out and my primary focus changed to scenic painting. However, music remains a huge part of my life. I love that no matter where I am or who I am with music brings people together in a way that nothing else can. I have seen that first hand on mission trips, in the classroom, and in my daily life.
Instruments:
I am a multi-talented singer, musician, producer, and songwriter. Born with perfect pitch, I took classical piano lessons starting at the age of three and took lessons from well recognized and top professors from the UNT Faculty. I studied Jazz Vocal Performance from University of North Texas. My versatile background allows me to be flexible in teaching both Classical, Jazz, Pop, and other popular genres. Music has always been a part of my life and I want to share what I've learned throughout my experiences to others. I am also currently working in the studio recording my solo album and want to continue to further develop future artists and talent.

Select all the days/times the student would be available to start lessons. Selecting "3pm - 7pm" means the student can start as early as 3pm or start as late as 7pm. It is important that you select as many days and the widest window of start times for each day as possible. That will help us make a match with one of our teachers.
