Instruments: Piano Drums
I am a native of Fort Worth, TX. I began playing and singing at the age of 11. I participated in music during school from elementary to college. My accomplishments include placing first place in solo and ensemble, marching band contest, jazz band contest, etc. I have also established my own band and group who performs in the DFW metroplex. I have played in church since I was 12 years old. Read More
Instruments: Piano
As I alluded to previously, I lean much more towards the traditional end of the spectrum in regards to teaching. That being said, I also make a concerted effort to make my piano lessons fun and engaging for the student. I have had the great fortune of getting to study the piano under some really kind and inspiring people, and I try to emulate them the best I can. I want students to know I care about them without coming across as disingenuous, and I don't want them to ever feel afraid to ask a question. Read More

I usually see what level the student is on and we go from there. The age and interest of the students will also tell me which way to go in the lesson. Usually with beginner students the Hal Leonard book is a good place to start but I'm willing to start with any beginning book. If the students are just interested in one specific thing then we focus on that. Read More
Instruments: Piano
I love to see students grow and develop their gifts, and it is important that students are treated as individuals who learn at their own pace. I encourage goal-setting by the student in addition to my goals. This helps a student know what he or she is working toward, which I've found to be helpful especially in the knitty-gritty moments of learning how to play. Setting goals also gives students the chance to achieve milestones throughout the process and define their success as musicians, making them eager to continue on in the process of learning. Read More
Instruments: Piano Voice Cello Bass Guitar Keyboard
I am a fun and passionate teacher when it comes to music. When attending college for my performance degree I had thought that I would not want to teach others and just focus on performing. And as much as I love to perform I have found a love for passing along my enthusiasm and knowledge of music. I have worked as a Pre-K teacher for 7 years before deciding to try to make giving lessons a full-time thing, which I am still working towards. Read More
Instruments: Flute Piccolo
What is your favorite style/genre of music to play and why?
While I enjoy playing classical music for its intricate compositions and technical challenges, my favorite genre is gospel. I love gospel music because it allows for a communal experience where we can all sing together and uplift each other through powerful messages. The joy and emotion in gospel music create a unique connection that makes every performance special!
If you weren't a musician what do you think you'd be doing instead?
If I weren't a musician, I believe I would have pursued a career as a teacher or a counselor. I’ve always had a passion for helping others, and I still have a strong interest in teaching and counseling. Nevertheless, by giving lessons, I am also a teacher, and through making music together in my students' lives, I provide a form of counseling—not with words, but through rhythms and notes. I am actively seeking opportunities to learn more about these fields so I can further develop professionally and continue making a positive impact in people’s lives.
What does a normal practice session look like for you?
A normal practice session for me typically begins with a warm-up to get my fingers and breath working. I usually spend about 10-15 minutes on long tones and scales to build my sound and technique. After that, I focus on specific repertoire or pieces I’m currently preparing, breaking them down into sections to work on difficult passages. I like to incorporate a mix of classical and modern pieces, as this keeps my practice engaging and helps me explore different musical styles. Additionally, I spend some time improvising or playing along with backing tracks to develop my creativity and musicality. I always aim to reflect on my progress at the end of the session, making notes on areas to improve for next time. Overall, my practice sessions are structured yet flexible, allowing me to adapt based on my needs and goals.
If you have a Music Degree, what is it in (Performance, Education, Musicology, Theory, Composition, etc) and why did you choose that degree?
I hold a Master of Music degree in Flute Performance from Northwestern University and a Bachelor of Music degree in Flute Performance with a concentration in Music Education from the New England Conservatory of Music. I chose to pursue Performance because I have always been passionate about sharing music with others and expressing emotions through my playing. The artistry and technical skills involved in performance have always captivated me. Additionally, my concentration in Music Education reflects my commitment to teaching and inspiring the next generation of musicians. I believe that music has the power to connect people and transform lives, and I want to be a part of that journey for my students.
