TEACHING EXPERIENCE

I have been in the classroom for 23 years and absolutely love what I do. Although I teach music, I consider myself a Youth Success Expert because I am really teaching students about life.

Fun, energetic, exciting.

ADDITIONAL BIOGRAPHICAL INFORMATION

Degrees in both music and business - but a degree is only one step in learning. I have learned more living in Italy (2 years) and Japan ( 3 years) than I ever did in college. I study voraciously - reading, listening to podcasts, attending several conferences yearly, and more. When you stop learning, it's time to die.
