About Me
I have always loved music from an early age. I began playing clarinet and piano/keyboard at the age of 10 and continued my education by obtaining my Bachelor's of Arts degree in Secondary Education/Music. My musical influences include Jazz greats such as Benny Goodman and Art Tatum. My favorite thing about music is composing, performing, and teaching, and my favorite thing about teaching music is watching the students grow. One of my favorite teaching experiences was when a student of mine had a light bulb go off in their head and suddenly everything that they had practice clicked, and that made the music they were performing much easier. When taking lessons with me you can expect a positive attitude, professional behavior, and a drive to push students to their limits to grow as people and musicians. I look forward to getting to know you as a student and learning about your specific goals, interests, and learning style. Book a lesson now and get connected right away!
