My goal is to empower students to reach their goals through pursuing musical excellence. Whether you are starting violin for the first time, playing in youth orchestra, or honing your skills as a hobby, I aim to equip you with the tools you need for success. Most lessons consist of scales, etudes, and pieces from the Suzuki or classical repertoire. As a teacher I focus on technical development, intentional practice, and thoughtful musicianship. I’m currently working on a Doctor of Musical Arts degree at Arizona State University with Dr. Katherine McLin. I have an MM from ASU and a BM from Ithaca College, all in violin performance.
