I teach music because becoming a musician has helped me become the person that I am today. I could not have become that person without the music teachers that I had throughout my time in school. The impact that they had on me is the impact that I hope to have on young musicians in the future!

I have seen my teaching inspire many young students to continue in music, and I hope that I will continue to instill the same love that I have for the art in them for years to come.
