Teaching Philosophy
I pride myself on providing a safe space for students to learn and grow, and aim to develop lesson plans that meet the goals for every student. I approach teaching the trumpet through the building of tone and technique, to provide a strong foundation to pursue any form of music the student desires. My ultimate goal is to mold students into skilled musicians who are joyful about the music they create.
