Seeing my students develop a love for music and a passion for their instrument drives me as a teacher. As a performer, educator and musician, I enjoy sharing my knowledge and skill sets with developing musicians. In today’s hectic and violent environment, music gives everyone a chance to create a peaceful and loving environment- in my studio, we have a chance to not only escape the outside world, but to develop skills to bring music and joy to ourselves and those around us. It’s a thrill for me to see my current and previous students thrive as professional musicians, performers, educators and church musicians.
