I have been working and teaching kids since I was a kid myself. Upon graduating High School, I began attending Saint Paul College with the loose plan of becoming a "Sign Language Interpreter".

I discovered that becoming an interpreter was not exactly "my calling" and began expanding my degree to study Child Development and work with children. Read More

I began teaching private music lessons in 2017 during college. I have continued this for the last two years. I love to teach my students not only how to play/sing music, but also how to perform! My goal is to always prepare students for performance, and to also give them chances to perform. To do this, we hold bi-yearly or yearly recitals. We have even recorded a studio album in the past!

When I taught students some of them struggled with development about their voice quality. Read More
