About me
I have been making music for as long as I can remember and I even told my sixth grade teacher that I wanted to be a music teacher one day. I started violin at 9 years old, flute at 10, saxophone in grade 7 and I sang in chorus always. I even played sousaphone in college marching band. Now, I play all of the band instruments and am very happy I can teach you how to play!
