Instruments: Piano, Voice, Oboe
I began my career not as a teacher but as a performer of music. Originally, it was my ultimate goal to reach the highest obtainable musical ability through performance of the oboe and English horn. I practiced six hours daily regardless of health condition, and was exceptionally thorough while preparing for solos and concerts. Through the University of Northern Iowas Study Abroad Program, I was afforded the opportunity to study German, live with an Austrian host family and attend classes at both the citys university and music conservatory.

Instruments: Piano, Voice
For beginning piano students, I use Alfred's All-in-one Piano Course books. These books combine repertoire and theory, thereby cutting down on the number of books a new student needs to purchase. I use a variety of materials for voice students. I may ask that my voice students purchase books of repertoire that contain songs useful for building on their strengths and working on their weaknesses. However, I also have an extensive music library in my home studio. Read More

I write all my own lesson materials focusing on what the student needs to know to play, understand, and enjoy music to achieve their goals. I have used several method books in the past but find them all limited or focused on styles or technique that is not what the student wants or needs to learn. I can teach from any established method if that is preferred, but instead enjoy challenging the student to understand what music is and how music is played on their chosen instrument, not just to read.

My students have gone on to succeed in their auditions for district, region and state. Read More
Instruments: Piano
I love working with children and helping them discover the piano and the joy of playing music. I graduated from Baylor University with a Bachelor of Music degree in Piano Pedagogy and have been teaching ever since. I am an active member of the Richardson Music Teachers Association, which affords many musical opportunities for my students. My students participate in several festivals through RMTA throughout the year, and also participate in the state theory exam, if desired. Read More
