As a dedicated flutist with 14 years of experience, I facilitate musical growth through tailored instruction. I began teaching flute lessons and master classes in 2020. Additionally, I specialize in teaching beginner wood winds. (Flute, Clarinet, and Saxophone) I attended Stephen F. Austin State University, under the direction Dr. Christina Guenther. My goal for every level of musician, is to cultivate creativity while fostering a genuine and life long appreciation of music.

I hold an AAS in Guitar Performance and am a few credits shy of a BA in Music from UTA. With over 19 years of teaching experience, I've shared my passion with students of all ages and styles. Currently, I weave melodic tales as the guitarist for La Pompe Dallas (Gypsy Jazz), the upright bassist for Justin Pickard and the Thunderbird Winos (Best Americana Dallas 2023) and The Vinyl Stripes (Rockabilly & Surf). My musical journey spans classic rock, blues, bluegrass, country, swing, gypsy jazz, rockabilly, and more. Jazz Pianist Bernard Wright mentored me as a bassist in his Jazz trio for several years. I explored diverse instruments like piano, clarinet, mandolin, dobro, oud, and African percussion. Songwriting is a forte, having been a finalist in Dallas contests. In addition to music, I once designed Media Matrix audio gear for Peavey Electronics but chose the path of playing and teaching music over-engineering. Join me for an enriching musical experience – let's dive into the world of melodies and harmonies together!
