My teaching experience dates back to my youth, as I began teaching private lessons at the age of 15. I have been consistently teaching students in their homes since then, with the most students since graduating from college. Encouraging regular practice on a consistent schedule is one of the key points I like to emphasize for younger students, as it tends to help the student progress and gain a passion for the instrument.

Instruments: Piano
A few years ago, I taught the piano for approximately three years. I stopped teaching for a while in order to pursue my Bachelor's Degree - beginning at Dixie State University, and I am now working to build my clientele again. I absolutely love to teach. One of my favorite moments with every students happens at around the 4th or 5th lesson, when the student then feels comfortable enough to begin to discuss with me some of their goals with the piano. (Some students open up a little sooner, and others take some time). Read More

Music has been a passion of mine from age 6. I got my start playing the piano with friends trying to figure out the music from Super Mario 64. Not a day has gone by since then that I haven't picked up an instrument of some kind. It's been a goal of mine to learn as many instruments as possible throughout my life and focus on the instruments I love. I've been able to learn the piano, organ, all kinds of guitars, clarinet, oboe, saxophone, bassoon, trumpet, trombone, percussion instruments, and vocals. Read More

What advice do you have about practicing effectively?
I think that it is important to figure out your trouble spots immediately. If there is a section that is difficult to play in your music, stop and take a moment to figure out why it is difficult. Once the problem has been identified, work to find ways to stop the problem. Many of these problems can be resolved by relaxing the body and more importantly the wrist, taking the passage slower, and playing it multiple times - both hands alone then together. Play the passage in different rhythms, fast and slow, and with different wrist techniques. This will increase your ability to play it up to tempo, currently.
Why did you choose your primary instrument?
I started playing the piano when I was three. My mom started teaching me at such a young age. I honestly don't even remember my life without the piano in it. Because of this, I have always played the piano and I will never stop. It brings me such joy to find a piece of music that I love and working on it until it is perfect! I chose to continue with piano because it relaxes me. It is my hobby. It is the thing that I do when I am having a bad day. I love sitting down at a piano and sight reading a new book of music. Playing the piano is what brings me joy.
What is your favorite style/genre of music to play and why?
I love playing music from the Romantic Period. I think that the composers during this period wrote incredibly beautiful music. I love the flowing style of pieces from this era. I also love to play more contemporary music. I think that the chords and styles used in this music is very exciting. There are so many different ways that a piece from this style can be played. I believe that it is important to have fun playing your music. I love to listen to different recordings and see how the performer played that piece and then put my own personal touch on the piece as well.
Does music run in your family? Tell us a little about your musical family members.
I grew up in an extremely musical family. My mom teaches piano and has a piano studio of over 65 piano students. I can't remember a time where my mom wasn't teaching piano. I have three siblings. When each of us turned eight we got to choose a second instrument that we wanted to play. I chose to play the cello. Two of my siblings play the violin while the other plays the viola. We had a string quartet growing up. We have performed at several different events, with my mom accompanying us on the piano. We each play the piano and have loved getting to play together. We especially love the holidays when we get to play music together.
