Tempus Strings
About
I believe that all students can learn given the opportunity. I challenge students to learn in depth and believe that the more we expect, the more students will rise to that expectation. I am a passionate advocate of the arts and my passion is exuded to my students. I am a life-long learner and feel that it is important as a professional to continue learning and extending ourselves. I attend educational seminars, read many books and have taken private lessons to improve my skills.
I enjoy passing on the knowledge and skills that I have learned during my career as a musician and educator. Music is a unique gift that brings passion, communication and joy to all. Being able to share this gift is a wonderful thing.

I have earned a Master of Music degree in String Bass performance, I hold a Colorado State Certification in Music K-12 Education, and I have performed as a professional musician on String Bass, Electric Bass, Violin (fiddle) and Cello.
