It is my goal to provide students with the tools they need to play the music they want on the guitar, all out of the convenience of their homes. I want to share the gift of music to others in the hopes that it will enrich their lives as much as it has mine. I realize that music is an art form worthy of serious study, and as such, the way it's taught is of upmost importance. Therefore, I am acutely aware of how I present material to my students, and they can be assured that I will always teach to the best of my ability, so they can benefit the most from their lessons.

I have always loved both the performance and education field of music. It didn't matter that I started taking Violin lessons (after a lot of persistent "bugging") when I barely spoke English. Music has inspired me to enjoy the learning process and has given me the opportunity to truly express myself.

Have you ever wondered if you could play the piano like the person you have heard of admired? The answer if Yes! As a private piano teacher for the past 20 years, I have had the pleasure of seeing students as young as 4 and as old as 70 enjoy seeing their talent become alive as we unlock what has been inside.
I began piano lessons at the age of six and continued for the next 14 years with private piano study. This gave me many levels of education about playing the piano, which I share with my 40 students each week. At the age of 13, I also began to realize that I could listen to a song, look at the chord and notes on the music, and put them together to make the song sound like it should. This was fantastic! I realized I could play by ear and read music, which is a strong focus of my teaching methods...to make sure a student is proficient in both areas.
While attending Oral Roberts University, I also studied music there. I am currently pursuing a plan for a Masters of Music...
