About Me

After many years of classical training, I moved to the Los Angeles area to pursue performing full time. After 30 years and 14,000+ performances, I have amassed a great deal of real life experience on the stage that I use to enrich and encourage the students I work with. In addition, I have been working as an instrumental aid, full time, for over 18 years in Long Beach Unified School District.
