I am a Level 3 Certified Suzuki Flute Teacher, have a degree in Flute Performance, and have my own studio in St Petersburg, Florida. I specialize in teaching children and create a very supportive, play-based learning environment. I love incorporating music reading and theory games into lessons. All ages and levels welcome! Lessons are catered to your individual goals, interests, and learning style.

I have over ten years of experience teaching violin and viola to students of all ages and backgrounds. I teach children as young as 5 years old up through adult. As a teacher, I cater to varying learning styles and use many different techniques to fit my students’ individual needs. I believe that no one learns in the same way, and as a result of this philosophy, I adapt my teaching to each specific, unique situation. I want music to be a fun activity where students can feel comfortable expressing themselves!

Experienced teacher and performer with over 12 years of experience. I've played well over a thousand gigs and taught many lessons, and I've worked with many of the industry's top professionals, like Tyler Carrol (Jonas Brothers), Kevin Cooper (Ike and Tina Turner), and Dave Elitch (M83, Miley Cyrus, The Mrs Volta).

I work with all skill levels, and my primary goal is to provide you with practical, real-world drumming skills. I want you to feel as free as you can on the kit, and this means developing a solid foundation in technique, timing, dynamics, reading, and much more. If you're a beginner, I'll be working with you on immediately creating great habits. You're gonna be rocking in no time! If you're advanced, I'll work with you on linear phrasing, advanced dynamic and technical concepts, and finding your unique voice as a professional. I look forward to working with you!

Having taught and performed for over 30 years, I have had the pleasure of working with students of all levels and ages. For beginning students, you can expect to be playing and learning to read music within your first month of taking lessons. I am happy to say that my intermediate and advanced students have met goals of preparing for auditions with success, performance events, and simply studying new technique and repertoire for their own pleasure. I look forward to meeting and sharing your musical endeavors!
