2023 marks my eighth year as a private lesson instructor! I taught my first lesson during college for a local studio and have continued teaching ever since. I have been a church accompanist since I was 13 years old and have accompanied many soloists, school choirs, and musical theater groups - I even played keys in a few jazz bands!

I have always focused on teaching each student holistically.

If students are interested in composing or song-writing, I can assist with that as well. Read More
