About

The First Note

I started playing guitar at age 10. I loved to dance and strum along to artists from the 70's and 80's.

Teach In Harmony

I believe patience is the most important aspect of teaching, I always think back to the struggles I had as a music student, and exercise understanding with students of all levels and backgrounds.

The Future Sounds Good

Music will change the world. Teaching has taught me that our children are the future, and music has a positive effect on any age student. Music can make a difference, create opportunity, and breathe life into silence.
