My Background

My Background

The love of music and people are centrifugal forces that have developed me into a teacher that teaches from the heart. I love to challenge all of my students to a deeper level of understanding of music and performance. I love to encourage baby steps in learning so that they feel effortless. Positive feedback encourages students to try new things and to overcome the fear of learning and performing.
