Teaching
My passion for teaching is rooted in my lifelong love of learning. Beginning my studies at the age of seven, I have had the privilege of working with some of the best harpists in the country who are masters in musical excellence, orchestral playing, music theory, and the music business. This extensive and varied training has deepened my understanding of the diverse approaches and styles within music, teaching me that there is no singular path towards achieving harp happiness. As a teacher, my goal is to help you discover your own unique path to success. I see studying the harp as a path to personal growth, combining intellectual challenge with emotional satisfaction. Whether you’re revisiting a longstanding passion or exploring new musical interests, I aim to cultivate a lifelong appreciation for music and support your continuous personal growth.
