I am in love with the Creative Arts and enthusiastic about introducing it to others. I currently am a Teaching Artist of Basic Music Theory, Baroque Flute Recorder and Flute.

I participate in my local community by engaging as a booking/media/communications artist and teacher for non-profit Henry For Music, playing vocal/flute gigs from time to time, in musical theater with The Front Porch Players, and am a former member of Henry Community Chorus.

I began vocalizing and harmonizing as a very young child, and playing the Baroque Flute Recorder in 6th grade. That same year I transitioned to the transverse closed-hole Gemeinhardt Flute under the direction of Mr. Ed Davis, former Southern Crescent Symphony Orchestra Assistant Conductor and past President of the Georgia Music Educators Association. I continue to enjoy playing and tutoring, and having embarked upon several "100 Days of Practice" Challenges, most recently with an open-holed Gemeinhardt Flute.

I annually complete annual background checks with non-profit organizations including Henry For Music, Inc. and USA Boxing, Inc., both of which I am active with as a local, national and international volunteer.
