I am a musician and vocalist and have played several musical instruments for most of my life.  I have always had a love for singing and playing music and a passion for teaching it to children.  I began teaching private piano lessons from my home over 30 years ago and have successfully helped hundreds of children over the years to gain the same love that I have for music and to be able to successfully play and enjoy the piano.  I have held piano recitals semiannually for my students and families. I have taught ten years of music preschool classes where I developed my own curriculum where each class was filled with fun and joy and music and movement. Many of my music preschool students loved the class so much, they became my piano students when they were old enough. I began substitute teaching for Cherry Creek Schools in January of 2022, and many of the music teachers now request me by name to cover their music classes when they are away.   I was recently selected to be the long-term music sub at Greenwood Elementary from April until the end of the school year, and I can't wait!  My dream job is teaching elementary music classes.  It combines the two things I am best at and love most: music, and teaching it to children.
