All accomplished players remember how it was to be starting out on this great journey in music, and that is certainly true for me. I take a lot of pride in helping folks get into the musical conversation and begin to enjoy themselves by playing music. It is VERY gratifying to help people acheive their dream of playng music.

Hi, I’m Eno—a lifelong musician with a passion for teaching and creativity! Since 2017, I’ve worked with children in a variety of enriching environments, including hobby farms, summer camps, tinkering schools, public events, and both private and group music lessons. These experiences have shaped my approach to education, blending fun, exploration, and skill-building. My mission is to inspire students of all ages and skill levels to discover the joy of music while building their skills and confidence. Through customized lessons and encouragement, I strive to make music a rewarding and empowering experience for everyone I teach.

As a private lesson teacher, I want my students to have access to the vast opportunities, life-fulfilling experiences, and careers that music can offer. Musicians impact their communities by bringing joy, emotional expression, and a place to explore something new. Also, music is just fun. Let's impact our community together one note at a time! I am also able to teach beginning music theory and aural skills. An avid orchestral musician and freelance oboist, Lauren has performed with the orchestra of Northern New York as second oboe and English horn and most recently with the UNC-School of the Art’s production of The Nutcracker.
