I started my own studio at the age of 23. I found this to be one of the most rewarding experiences of my life. In 2000, I entered the Music Education program at The University of Memphis. I continue to teach privately. I have taught children as young as 5 to adults of the age of 72. I have also taught string orchestra for 12 years. After 20 years of teaching, I still have a strong desire to share my knowledge and love of music with others. Read More

I had around 20 students I taught on a weekly basis ranging from the ages of 4 to 60; the majority being on the younger side. However, I think its never too late to learn an instrument!

I love what I do and want to share my passion for music and the pride that comes with the mastery of an instrument with others. Read More

I enjoy teaching music, and consider it my calling. Having started double bass in college, I began performing with the Fort Worth Symphony after studying two years. When in college in Florida, I served as Principal (first chair) Bass of the Greater Miami Opera, and the Fort Lauderdale Symphony. In graduate school in Michigan, I was Principal Bass of the Flint Symphony. Returning home to Dallas, I performed with the Dallas Symphony, and recorded over a dozen compact discs with the orchestra.

Watching students progress and fall in love with music is deeply rewarding for me.

I began teaching private lessons to young children when I was 15 under the direction of my parents, who are both violinists and public school teachers. In college, I began teaching both children and adults full time, and since graduating I have continued teaching as my full-time job. While I am classically trained, I love rock, pop, and fiddle tunes too, and I encourage my students to try out multiple genres and to find what motivates them. Read More
