Fortunately, music has been the central part of my life since I began lessons. Early on I knew I wanted to be a professional, and practiced to be able to study at some of the best music institutions in this country.

First thing's first: 1) WHAT are you listening to, lately? 2) WHY are you interested in learning music? 3) WHERE do you hope music will take you?

I have been working as an instructor for over 15 years. I can teach all ages and backgrounds, and have a very patient approach. I recently moved to the Denver area, and I am excited to start up and build a new student base. I do expect my students to practice, as it is the only way a student will improve and grow to love music even more. I encourage my students to get involved in any talent shows at school, as well as any competitions and recitals available in the area. Read More

For the past 30 years, I have been teaching students of all ages in my home and in their homes. I have had funny twin boys, serious adults who don't really care much for theory and teenage girls. I even was lucky enough to have as a student a young lady who was crowned Miss Colorado. When I began teaching, students always came to my home. There was a time I was teaching 50 students and had to have two separate recitals-it was great! Read More

And as always, I encourage all of my students to bring in music they enjoy, so that we can work on learning it together. Read More

I studied voice and piano from the age of 8 through to high school and college eventually teaching at a private studio in Birmingham, AL. Read More
