    Introduction
    I am a creative and patient music teacher specializing in woodwinds and beginning piano. I want to use my conservatory training and life experiences to give others the joy of making music!

    My Teaching Background
    I took my training to the highest level by getting a doctorate in performance with William Winstead at Cincinnati College-Conservatory. Where I also took classes in woodwind methods, piano lessons, and minored in music composition.I have been teaching private lessons for 18 years from my own private studio as well as Cincinnati-Conservatory Prep. Department, Thomasville Road Academy of the Arts, and Mason School of Music. My professional experience includes positions with Northern Kentucky Symphony, Richmond Symphony, Atlantic Chamber Orchestra as well as various volunteer activities at local churches and libraries.

    My Teaching Philosophy
    I have high standards and work hard to help students overcome difficulties. I am especially appreciative of students who love music and want to practice and will do everything possible to help them achieve their goals.

    Rates And Availability
    I teach out of my home studio and my rates are $40 per hour or $20 per half-hour lesson. I anticipate doing a Christmas Concert, a Spring Recital and a Summer service project this year
