I am a dedicated music educator with experience teaching and directing ensembles at the middle school, high school, and collegiate levels. With a passion for inspiring students through music, I focus on developing well-rounded musicianship, fostering a positive classroom culture, and encouraging lifelong engagement with the arts.
Over the course of my career, I have directed concert bands, marching bands, and small groups, leading students to successful performances at festivals, contests, and community events. I believe in teaching beyond the notes—helping students build discipline, teamwork, and confidence through music education.
I hold a B.S.Ed in Music Education and a B.S. in Music from Western Carolina Univsersity, where I also had the opportunity to work with collegiate-level ensembles and mentor aspiring music educators. Outside of the classroom, I remain active as a performer and advocate for music for all students at all grade bands in public schools.
