I am a harpist and a scientist. At Brigham Young University, I minored in music, emphasizing in harp, while earning a geology degree. I also performed in the BYU Harp Ensemble. The formal training in harp at BYU gave me good footing in the basics of harp, complimenting my analytical bent on music. I love combining these foundations and analytical sense with my shear love of harp and music. I enjoy teaching, performing, improvising, arranging, and even dabbling in therapeutic music.

I have been playing harp for 7 years. Having begun playing as an adult, I am acutely aware of the challenges of beginning a new instrument, as well as the sense of fulfillment of playing a piece you personally love. Accordingly, I work to understand my students own experience and help them overcome challenges they encounter. I am also eager to find or arrange music based on exactly what each student is interested in. I teach both pedal and lever harp. For students in northeastern PA, I have lever harps available for rent so you can try it out before buying your own harp.

Becoming a harpist is a dream come true for me, and I am excited to help your dream come true, so book your first lesson with me today!
