About
I love teaching and playing violin and piano and have been a professional musician all my adult life. I played violin with Alabama Symphony for 10 years and have a Bachelor and Master degree in music with a major in violin and minor in piano.
I teach students of all ages and my apporach is to see each student indiviually with a unique set of strengths and challenges. My students progress rapidly and learn to read music, music theory, performance skills and basic improvisation.

Frequently asked questions
What is your typical process for working with a new student?
I work in a very structured way making sure each student understands the skill we are working on and writing down exactly how to practice it. They leave each lesson with a list that describes skills (tunes) to practice, how to practice it and what the results should be. That list becomes the menu for our next lesson so the student knows what to expect. My teaching is very positive and encouraging and we do a lot of laughing!
