About

I am passionate about teaching and playing the violin. I have received a great gift from God and seek to use it for His Glory and purposes and to develop this gift to the best of my ability in myself and others.

I earned a Music Education degree from Southern Nazarene University and a Master's degree in Violin Performance from the University of Oklahoma. I perform regularly with the Ft. Smith Symphony, the Lawton Philharmonic and the Painted Sky Opera Company. I occasionally play with the Oklahoma City Philharmonic and the Tulsa Symphony. In addition, I play for weddings, churches and other events, recordings, and concerts including Mannheim Steamroller, Michael Buble and Harry Connick Jr.

I taught beginning strings in Putnam City Schools for 6 years and a Kindergarten violin class for 4 years in Bethany Public Schools. I am certified in the Suzuki Violin Method, Book 1.

My amazing husband of 19 years and I have 3 girls. I also enjoy running, baking fresh bread, warm fires and snuggly blankets.

Frequently asked questions

What is your typical process for working with a new student?

I like to spend time figuring out where each student is: music history, personality, age, and specific needs. Then we build a music plan to make the student as comfortable as possible.

I love the Suzuki method. I seek to build a relationship and trust between the student and myself. "Where love is deep, much can be accomplished!"

What education and/or training do you have that relates to your work?

I learned violin in Putnam City Schools, where I was in All State orchestra for 3 years. I got my bachelor's degree in Music Education from Southern Nazarene University, and my master's degree in Violin Performance from the University of Oklahoma. I recieved certification in the Suzuki Method in 2019.
