I am a music educator, violist and singer from Austin, Texas and I currently reside in Pagosa Springs, Colorado. I have been a musician all my life and began teaching independently in 2016. In 2018 I taught through a music studio in Kyle, Texas called Curious Chords and from 2021 to 2023 I was a Middle School and Elementary School Orchestra Director in the Austin Independent School District. I was nominated AISD's "Teacher of Promise" in 2022 just before I made the San Juan Mountains my home. Since I moved to Pagosa I have begun building my private music studio, Pagosa Strings, which caters to 30+ students of various ages, skills, and instruments. I have two locations I teach at, one uptown and one downtown, and I have availability 5 days a week so I am confident we can find a time and place that works for you. I offer private lessons of various lengths and prices as well as a group class on Tuesdays at 4p for my orchestral instrument students to connect and create music together. Furthermore, I was an assistant director for the annual summer Orchestra Camp for students ages 8-18 and hope to continue this effort with Ms. Anika Thomas so that the youth of Pagosa Springs get to experience the excitement of performing in an orchestra.​
