I'm a recent graduate in music education from the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign. In my 4 years at college I have had ample experience teaching ensembles, classes, and one-on-one lessons. I have experience in ensembles of all types and difficulty levels. I'm well-involved in musical organizations on-campus and when I'm not studying, teaching, or with friends, I spend quite a bit of my time making music with others. My teaching philosophy is to foster a love for music and music-making while also creating outstanding musicians and people. I have experience in: high-level collegiate concert band, marching band, pep band, chamber ensemble, jazz band, jazz combo, pit orchestra, and orchestra.
