If you are looking for a passionate, dedicated, and talented flute teacher, you are in the right place!

I have been teaching private flute lessons for 16 years, and I am currently an orchestral flutist as well as an in-demand teacher in the York County, SC and Charlotte, NC areas. I work with flutists of all ages from beginner to adult. My students have received many honors such as numerous "superiors" awarded at solo & ensemble, acceptance into region band, participation in many collegiate band clinics, and acceptance into the Charlotte Youth Wind Ensemble. I have also conducted award-winning flute choirs and many of my students have gone on to become successful music majors in college.

My goal with flute lessons is to help the student achieve their own personal flute goals. Whether they are just feeling behind in band class and want to catch up, or they really want to excel at the flute and enter some local competitions like Region Band, or even if they want to continue flute in college, my students can look to me as a mentor who will guide them through their musical career. I know the ins and outs of the audition process and can help prepare a student for any type of audition. The most common feedback I get from parents and band directors is how much more confident their child is about their abilities, and how much stronger and bolder their flute playing sounds. Students often tell me that reading music is much easier after studying with me.

I am very experienced with teaching both flute and piccolo. My lessons are usually taught at my home, but I sometimes commute to my student's houses or schools. I have a 24-hour cancellation policy, but if it is my fault that we miss a lesson, I will reschedule it. I teach lessons on a weekly basis, not bi-weekly or any other frequency. Extra lessons are sometimes available leading up to an important audition or performance.

The best teaching times for me are weekdays after school/work hours, although I am sometimes able to come to a student's school to teach the
