For over a decade, I have provided music instruction for PreK through high school across all types of instruments and ensembles. My students have gone on to successful careers with many of them performing in music. My skills of learning one instrument and being able to effectively transfer that understanding to many other instruments have served me well as a school music educator and earning a Master's of Music from the University of Tennessee for general, vocal, and instrumental education. I have been recognized in the music education industry for my innovative teaching and a dedication to ensuring my students receive appropriate teaching methods that help them effectively and safely develop their potential. Thank you for making me part of your journey.Reviews
