It has been great fun putting my classes together for Outschool and teaching them. Even though my training is music, I have several classes that anyone can take.
I am a professor at a college in Southwest Arkansas where I direct choirs and teach classes related to choral music and voice. I also have taught AP Music Theory in public schools.
I have served as a music professor, graduate teaching assistant, public school teacher, and voice teacher. I hold a Doctorate, Masters and Bachelors degrees in music.
I believe that teaching music can be engaging and fun. Learning about music teaches us about life!
In addition to my teaching, I love being a new daddy to my 1-year-old baby girl Myra!
