I am an experienced performer and teacher living in Parker, Colorado. I play the flute and piccolo professionally throughout the greater Denver area and I am currently teaching flute students ranging in age from 6th grade to 12th grade. I also teach piano lessons to beginners ranging in age from Pre-K to 5th. In addition, I am an elementary music teacher in the Cherry Creek School District. I have been teaching at Cimarron Elementary for 6 years. 

My goal for my students is to use my extensive training and knowledge to help them be as successful as possible by using the best practices and methods. I want every student to reach their full potential so it is my highest priority to instill productive practice habits and make each lesson meaningful and helpful. I have students set goals, keep notes and write out practice logs and I make sure they have the most level-appropriate method books, exercises and literature to play. 

People have said that my enthusiasm for music is contagious and I try to use that to help motivate my students to be the best player they can be!
