I'm a multi-instrumentalist and composer with over 15 years of teaching experience. I have been playing and composing for over 20 years. I'm passionate about composition, improvisation, music theory, and microtonal music in particular. I'm also trained in classical, jazz, and contemporary styles, as well as a capable producer and arranger. I am encouraging and patient and believe that clear communication and respect is essential to have fun and learn. I believe that all people are capable of improvisation and composition, they just need a spark of inspiration. Read More

Instruments: Cello

I’ve been playing cello since kindergarten and teaching lessons since I was a freshman in high school. Music has always been my passion, and helping pass it on is one of my favorite things to do. Since then, I went on to East Carolina University to major in music but just recently transferred to Western Oregon University to pursue a program closer to what I want to do. I am a dedicated teacher who has always loved helping people learn, and I am consistently inspired by what my students accomplish. Read More

My methods vary on the student and subject. Beginning students will typically focus more on technical pieces of music to improve on certain aspects of a few pieces to perform. More advanced students will still practice technical parts of their music, but less time will be spent on it during a lesson. Advanced level students will spend more time on repertoire and performance. The more advanced a student gets, the more I expect them to practice outside of lessons and apply their newly learned technical skills into their music on their own. Read More
