for beginning students who are children and just starting out, i typically start with the basic elements of either voice or guitar, depending on which lesson you have chosen. once the student has progressed to have a grasp of the fundamentals, I will begin to introduce solo repertoire which is age - appropriate of course, in hopes of preparing them for a first recital, perhaps. for adults, i try to find out what the student is interested in, and guide my instruction accordingly to keep the lessons engaging and fun, no matter their ability level.

I've been slowly teaching private lessons while I've been in the final years of college. With the KU curriculum, I have had to learn how to work with children from Pre-K to 12th grade, which means any age is something I've been prepared for.

I've sung jazz, musical theater, and classical pieces since high school. Read More

Recently, I've decided to devote more time to teaching. Guitar and music have meant so much to me and have given me such a powerful outlet. Read More

After six years of teaching school, I was offered a position as Minister of Music at my church. I couldn't say no. God has been good to me. From my earliest memories, I have always wanted to play the guitar and write songs. I've been blessed with many performances and music experiences, but none compare to working with ordinary people to do extraordinary things in the arts for the love of God. Read More
