I am currently finishing up my Masters of Music degree at DePaul University in Chicago, where I study flute performance with the principal flutist of the Chicago Symphony Orchestra. I previously completed my Bachelor of Music from the Aaron Copland School of Music in New York City. I am originally from Buffalo, New York, and have performed with the Buffalo Philharmonic Orchestra on numerous occasions. My goal is to have a position in a professional symphony orchestra, in combination with my own private teaching studio.
To me, teaching is a way for me to give back and pass on everything I have been taught to more flutists and musicians. I want everyone to experience the joy of music, and the satisfaction of accomplishing their musical goals.
I have been teaching private flute/piccolo lessons for almost 10 years. In that time, I have started many beginner students, as well as help advanced students prepare for auditions, competitions and performances. I have taught lessons in public school programs, as well as private music schools. I also have experience with music theory tutoring. I have tutored undergraduate college students in theory, sight singing, and dictation. I have also prepped several high school students for the AP Music Theory exam.
I am extremely passionate about what I do with music and teaching, and hope we can work together soon!
