Doctorate in Musical Arts in Music Composition

    Learn how music works with a seasoned composer.

    With a doctorate in music composition and a portfolio of works performed across various platforms, I bring a wealth of knowledge and experience to my role as a music theory teacher. My years of teaching choir, AP music theory, Music Appreciation, and tutoring college-level music theory and aural skills have honed my ability to convey complex musical concepts in a clear and engaging manner. I am dedicated to providing my students with a comprehensive understanding of music theory, fostering their musical growth, and inspiring a lifelong appreciation for music. My passion for music education drives me to create an enriching and supportive learning environment where students can thrive and develop their musical talents to the fullest.
