Learn through PLAY! I am very influenced by the Orff, Kodaly, and Dalcroze pedagogies. All of my songs are easy to learn and incorporate movement and action. Tots with Tempo's material encourages improvisation and imagination as little one's explore and experience music fundamentals through play.

I have two spunky kids that are the inspiration for my songs and material. They are also my testers: if they don't approve, the song doesn't make the cut! My husband, Logan, is a mechanical engineer for the USPTO, and also phenomenal guitarist and vocalist. We enjoy performing at weddings and local events together. My favorite thing to do is spend time with my family, friends, and mischievous dog, Luna. I feel so blessed to be able to do what I love! Thank you for checking out my store.
