Teaching Philosophy: "I believe the most important thing when teaching music to kids, adults, or anyone, is to impress how fun and creative it can be. Music is essentially a universal language that anyone can learn to speak; it allows you to interact with other people and express yourself in an abstract way that can uncover deep emotions from the soul that just can’t come out in words. It can make you feel like dancing, laughing, crying, jumping for joy, or any number of things; I always have a great time getting to know kids, what they want to achieve by learning music, and helping them find their place in this symphony of life!"
