Instruments: Flute, Piccolo

The most important thing I place emphasis on in my lessons with students is individual growth. All students learn at different paces, and I believe it is important that as a teacher, I set realistic goals with my students at each lesson. When I practice, I tend to keep a journal with me to record what work I practiced that day and how I felt about the work I completed. Read More

I'm a passionate musician who's always dedicated my life to helping people find the joy in music I've always found. After studying music education for 4 years at Murray State University, I've turned my sights on music therapy, but I still have a passion for teaching and introducing people to the magic that comes with playing and learning music. While I do not have many accolades or accomplishments, I'm always more proud of bringing more people into our world than anything else. Read More

I try to learn quickly how my students learn best and then work with that to help them learn the material. With that I am more prepared to work with them and help set realistic goals for each lesson. I hope that through lessons I help them develop a passion for music as well as playing their instrument. I am always asking the student how they feel about the songs they play, what they want to learn, and making sure they are grasping the material so that I can encourage further learning with my students.

Knowing and having an array of tone colors, articulations and dynamics will not only make your repertoire easier, but will allow it to flow more naturally, giving you more room for your creative side. Every student is different and will accelerate at their own pace, and I am willing to work with anyone who has a drive and passion for music! Read More
