Although my experience as a music teacher at Mike’s Music has only just begun, there is a lifetime of passion for music and teaching that precede it. I began singing when I could speak, joining multiple choirs over the years, and I learned to play piano with my grandmother when I was big enough to sit at the piano. I took piano lessons from 8 years old until I completed my music minor in college, playing a total of over 10 years. I even had the opportunity to take lessons from a teacher at Mike’s Music! The feeling of mastering a piece after the dedication and hard work you put into it is a feeling like no other, one that I hope all musicians have the chance to experience. As my music passion developed, my passion for teaching began to take shape. Majoring in Special Education and Elementary Education, I went into the field with the mindset of providing each child with the tools needed to succeed, knowing that each child has the potential to be the best version of themselves even if they need some extra supports along the way. I have had the opportunity to work with children as young as infants, to school age, and up through adults (21 y.). As a special education teacher, my students have learned that I will never judge them for a mistake and that I will always use their strengths to build upon their areas of need. And, of course we have some fun along the way! Otherwise, what’s the point? I enter the studio for each lesson equipped with my passions for music and teaching in order to help these growing musicians find their love for making music just as I did.
