Basic Teaching Philosophy or Special Music Interests/Specialties
I want to offer the next generation of musicians and music-enthusiasts the same inspiration, support, love, and happiness that my musical mentors have given me in my musical journey.

Favorite things: watermelon, opera, The Hobbit, seeing blossoms for the first time every spring Memorable musical moment: when an audience member said to me after a concert, "You make me want to go on living." What I love about playing the violin: it's like pulling your arm through a creamy river of chocolate
