As long as I inspire and touch the lives of my students, I will feel rewarded as well. Read More

I'm a performer/composer who comes from a line of professional arts educators. Both my parents and one of my grandmothers are lifelong teachers in musical theater and modern dance respectively. I've learned a huge amount from them not only about my art form but about the skills required to be a good teacher, regardless of topic.

My teaching style is built on a foundation of encouragement and self-improvement. For a student to truly progress, he or she needs to be inspired and that's what my job is mostly about.

Always being positive, even in criticism, is important to me. Read More

In 1976 I graduated from Auburn University with a BS in Music Education. Read More
