Teaching Artist Statement
As a teacher, my approach is all about meeting my students where they are, and guiding them toward their musical goals. Every student is different, so I strive to incorporate their musical interests in our lessons. I’m open to all genres. As we study music, I find we also learn about ourselves along the way.
