Instruments: Trumpet Trombone Flute Clarinet Ukulele French Horn

Students who are just beginning their instruments, no matter what point in life, are my favorite group to work with.

Instruments: Saxophone Flute Clarinet Bassoon

To me as a musician, teaching is as important and as necessary to our art as performing, and it is always a joy to share that art with students. I graduated from Kent State University in 2015 with my Bachelor of Science in Music Education, followed by a Master of Music in Bassoon Performance in 2019, and recently completed an Artist Diploma from UC-CCM. Although a bassoonist primarily, I've performed with orchestras such as the Kentucky Symphony Orchestra, and the Warren Philharmonic, as well as bands like the Akron Symphonic Winds, the Cleveland Winds, and the Packard Band.
