I am a passionate, energetic, compassionate, music-loving person! I am all about connecting music to everything else in a human's life - student or teacher. I specialize in thinking out of the box! I love trying new things, keeping what works, and retooling what needs improvement. I consider the whole human in my approach to music education - yes, we need to teach kids to play their instruments well, but more importantly, we help them become compassionate, musical members of our society! Everything we do with them in the musical classroom or rehearsal sphere is tranferrable to everything else they do!
