More about me and my teaching philosophy:

​

I feel so lucky to have worked with a diverse range of students. I have had many adult students who play very well just looking to continue their studies for fun, teens working towards regional auditions or futures in music, beginners from the age of three, music majors in college, and even fellow string teachers searching for a pedagogue. I am certified in the Suzuki Method, and also a certified K-12 public school educator.  Recent students have earned places in the Stretto Youth Orchestra, Chicago Youth Symphony Orchestra, and the Metropolitan Youth Symphony Orchestra.


All of my students are given a solid foundation in technique and are encouraged to use that foundation to explore their innate musicality, uninhibited. My approach is thorough, based in artistry and kindness, and ensures a healthy and wholesome performer capable of anything to which they set their mind.
