I strive to be an effective teacher whos able to provide a catered, caring, and educated learning experience for my students.

I like to believe that I have found many ways to create a fun, productive, and educational environment in my own home or in a separate teaching facility. Read More

I have performed with the Tallahassee Symphony Orchestra since 2018 and also the assistant principal cellist of the Northwest Florida Symphony Orchestra. In addition, I have played with the Richmond Symphony, the Ocala Symphony, Sinfonia Gulf Coast, Northwest Florida Ballet, Sewanee Summer Festival Symphony, and many other orchestras and ensembles. If it's not obvious, I love performing orchestral repertoire, but also chamber music and pretty much anything else you can think of - and this love of music extends to teaching. Read More

My lessons can be structured based on the students needs and meeting their long term or short term goals. Read More
