"I am committed to enriching the lives of our students and community by providing a creative home where passion intersects with opportunity. In this place we welcome world cultures, value individual students, teach musical expression, promote academic achievement, and serve as a positive and creative cultural force. I am dedicated to providing students opportunities to discover and develop their musical passions and explore their creative voices through relevant and cutting-edge teaching, and a focus on real-world applications of the musical arts and entertainment."

If anyone reading this has some music in their background or hopes to have music in their future in any capacity - vocals, instrumentals, DJ, tech, business, playing the spoons, whatever, I want to meet you! Come visit me in the Fine Arts building, room 101A. Let's make some music together and make our school, our community, and our world a better place!
