I believe everybody is different and needs a blend of teaching styles to fit them. I adapt to my student and try to simply teach music. I believe in holistic, fact-based teaching, and work to ensure my student not only understands, but ENJOYS what they are learning.

I have been interested in music since a very young age, though I wasn't always good at it. It took a long time before I found my voice. When I did, there was only one thing that made me feel productive- lessons! Outside of normal school time I would go to my teacher's house and learning how to sing. It's something I found a true love for. Though teaching choir is an absolute blast and half I really do love the one-on-one time. Seeing individuals shine during these lessons reminds me of when I was in that position and how close I was to realizing my musical dream. Now I get to help you realize yours!
