I am a musician and educator based in Essex, Vermont.
I began my musical journey with some incredible teachers:
Sharon Hintz • piano
Marcia Wisner • general music
Tina Glander • choir
Jason Gillette • band
Mark Davis • jazz piano/theory
Dr. Erin Heisel • voice
These teachers brought their authentic selves to their music-making, inviting me to do the same.
Their classrooms were safe and inviting spaces for learning—and for simply being present.
My music teachers gave me a priceless gift: a connection to music that has given me a sense of belonging for my entire life. It is my primary aim as a music educator to share that same gift with each of my students.
