ABOUT LESSONS
I am a compassionate and enthusiastic teacher dedicated to helping my students reach for the stars! I am dedicated to nurturing a love for music in each student and aim to positively enhance the student’s strength, dexterity, and technique while building a lasting interest in music.

I have 8 years of experience teaching clarinet and saxophone to students of all ages and abilities. My students consistently receive excellent scores on NYSSMA evaluations and have advanced through District, Region, and All-State ensembles throughout the U.S. Past students have been accepted to music programs at Penn State University, University of New Hampshire, and George Washington University.
Whether you are a young student looking to pursue music at a high level or an adult student searching for a creative outlet, I can help you reach your musical goals.
