Hello! I have been playing instruments for most of my life. I play 23 different instruments which include the Piano, Trumpet, Cornet, Flugelhorn, Harmonica, Clarinet, Classical/Acoustic Guitar, Ukulele, Mandolin, Pan Flute, Silver Flute, Accordion, Alto/Soprano/Tenor Sax, Penny Whistle, Indian Flute, Ocarina, Beginning on French Horn and Trombone and Banjo, and Euphonium.

I am very easygoing, patient, and creative in teaching music. Your lesson will be quality and efficiently focused. Let's get your journey started!
