Bio
I started my musical journey at the age of 4, taking piano lessons from my daycare teacher. I started trumpet in middle school and switched to french horn when I got to high school, where I have stayed since. I recently graduated from the University of Wisconsin Stevens Point, majoring in Horn Performance, and minoring in Jazz Studies. There I performed in many Wind Bands, Orchestras, Pit Orchestras, and Big Bands, including the Central Wisconsin Symphony Orchestra. My teaching style is not as strict as most teachers. I want to find a style that works for you, instead of trying to force you to learn in a way that is not as intuitive to you. My only big expectation is that you are willing to put in the effort to grow as a musician.
Music Education:
BM Horn Performance, Jazz Studies Minor, University of Wisconsin Stevens Point
Teaching Experience:
Variety of experience over the last 5 years
Styles Taught:
Jazz, Improvisation, Classical, and Contemporary.
