Instruments: Piano
I am a lover of music that has always enjoyed sharing it with others. I have been involved in musical activities all through since grade school. I graduated with a Master of Music Arts with a specialty in teaching from Texas Woman's University so I could better share my love of music. I have also been in one choir or another over the years. I sang with the Denton Community Chorus, Nairobi Concert Choir and had the privilege of performing at Carnegie Hall in New York City with the Texas Woman's University Concert Choir. Read More

My teaching style is just like most I think. I don't rush with the students. Always trying to go slow and make sure the students understands everything. I've gotten pretty good at figuring out when the students get what I'm trying to teach. If I feel like I'm going to fast I'll stop think about what I'm doing and slow down. It's easy to talk to fast and rush as a teacher because I've taught so many students. Read More

As a cellist, I regularly play in several orchestras around DFW area such as Richardson Symphony Orchestra, Irving Symphony Orchestra, and Plano Symphony Orchestra. Read More

The biggest joy in teaching and working with students is seeing them develop a passion and love for music. My teaching experience is very hands on and I love to model everything that I teach. It's important for my students to progress at his or her own pace and I encourage this by setting goals for my students at each lesson. Positive reinforcement goes such a long way and I love letting my students know when they are making progress or accomplish something. Read More
Instruments: Piano Voice
As an accomplished performer and dedicated voice teacher, I find immense joy and fulfillment in imparting my knowledge of vocal arts. My journey in music began with a Bachelor of Music in Vocal Performance from the esteemed University of Kentucky, followed by a Master of Music in Vocal Performance with a focus on opera. These rigorous academic pursuits have equipped me with a deep understanding and proficiency in both classical and popular music genres. Read More
Instruments: Saxophone Flute Clarinet Bassoon
What do you think is the hardest thing to master on your instrument?
This is a cop-out answer, but mastering anything is difficult and requires effort. There is no one individual thing on any instrument that stands out as the hardest to accomplish. Many difficulties for bassoon can be traced to reed quality issues, or inconsistencies in fundamental techniques such as half-hole, or thumb key usage. I don't believe in singling out one "hardest" part of an instrument, because so much of it is based on case-by-case situations.
Do you use specific teaching methods or books? (Ex: Alfred, Bastion, Suzuki, Hal Leonard) Why did you choose them if you did?
For bassoonists, I use the Weissenborn Method for Bassoon. It's the most comprehensive etude book, and it covers everything a student will need to know from beginning well into college. This is also supplemented with my own methods.
For other instruments, beginners often bring their method books from band, which I heavily supplement with my own materials. As the students progress, saxophones will move into the Ferling studies, and Clarinets to the Rose studies.
If using a method book, I choose ones that present a cross section of music typical to be performed and techniques that can be advanced. The point of an etude book is to build a vocabulary for the student.
Have any of your students won awards or been selected for special honors? How have they succeeded?
I have prepared countless students for state Solo and Ensemble competition, youth orchestras, and even college auditions. My private students generally score Superior or Excellent, as well as the ensembles that I coach. I have had students participate in the Cleveland Orchestra Youth Orchestra, the Contemporary Youth Orchestra, the Akron Symphony Youth Orchestra, and many district honor bands hosted at different universities. The students I have helped with college auditions were accepted across the board, and are enjoying their musical careers at schools like Kent State University, Cleveland State University, and Miami University.
What musical accomplishments are you most proud of?
I've thankfully been put into many musical situations I can feel proud of, but a standout to me is winning the CCM Chamber Music Competition, Woodwinds Division with a close group of my friends. I began playing in the group filling in for a good friend who developed a hand injury, and we ended up clicking and gelling very well. Our preparation for the competition was very rigorous, and the music we played was extremely difficult, but the end result was putting on a spectacular performance. What was special about this performance compared to others was being able to accomplish it with the friends I had made, and feeling like we all put a distinct and individual touch on the piece. Even if we hadn't won, the music we played was at such a level that it felt like an achievement to get to the end!
