My teaching experience expands over 30 plus years. I begin teaching in Middle School as a Band Director, then a High School Band Director and back to Middle School.

I have been teaching High School and Middle School Chorus for the past fourteen years. Read More

I have been teaching private lessons at Northside Christian School for almost 2 full years at this point, and have been helping out during marching band season every year since 2017.

Seeing my students succeed and have fun playing music is the most rewarding thing for me! Therefore, it's important that each student finds something they want to play and think they can play. I always believe in my students regardless of what they pick to work on because it ultimately falls on their dedication and the will to play this tune. By setting realistic goals for my students every week, I believe my students can accomplish anything even if it takes a little longer than they think it should. Read More
