Frequently asked questions

As an educator, I feel that teaching a good balance of theory, technique, musical style and interpretation makes for a strong, well rounded performer and musician with a budding appreciation for the arts.  Musicianship and professionalism develops early and grows with maturity in a positive, energetic nurturing environment rich in positive reinforcement centered through the performing arts.

In all, I have been actively involved in music since childhood and have experience in teaching from the kindergarten level to collegiate level.  I have also worked, coached and directed both small and large ensembles, even leading string ensembles through the rigors of UIL, Regionals and other performing competitions which I am familiar with the standards and procedures and have a vast knowledge of repertoire and their expectations. Also for the last 5 years I have served on the adjudication panel of Solo and Ensemble proceedings in the districts of Conroe and Alief ISD’s.  I would like to also note that I was a string director of a huge performing arts festival called Frenchwoods in the Catskills of NY during the summer seasons from 2002-2009, in which I oversaw a full faculty of string teachers and worked with kids ranging from 7 to 17 years of age.
