Bio

My passion has always been teaching piano. Each student is unique and can be successful in music. My job is to give students the tools and education needed to help them achieve that success.

Music Education:

Illinois Wesleyan University- Bachelor of Music- Piano Performance

Teaching Experience:

Illinois Wesleyan University Piano Preparatory Program I began my teaching career in 2015 at Illinois Wesleyan University. I taught a wide range of students ages 5-18 in the piano preparatory program. After 9 years of teaching in the program, I decided to return to the Milwaukee area. I am excited to build my studio at White House of Music!

Styles Taught:

My teaching focuses on classical music. If a student shows interest, I will include jazz and musical theatre arrangements.

Methods Taught:

I will assess each student during their first lesson. The lesson books and repertoire I select for students are based on their musical experience, age, and weekly progress. Lessons will also include skills basics (scales, arpeggios, etc.) and music theory. For young beginners, students can expect to start in either the Music Tree or Piano Adventure series. Older students with experience will be assessed and given a broad range of repertoire.
