Personal Statement:
I enjoy teaching children and adults of all ages and
levels. My curriculum includes technique, music
theory, ear training, and performance opportunities.
Although classical music is my specialty, students
are exposed to many styles of music. I believe music
should be a joyful experience. The curriculum is
adapted to fit each student's learning style and
musical interest. Students have the opportunities to
perform throughout the year in formal recitals,
performance classes, and music festivals.
