Bio
I graduated from the University of Toledo in Toledo, Ohio with a degree in music education in 2016. I am a trumpet player by trade, but I love to play the French Horn as well. Marching band is my favorite class to teach, and I love being able to travel and perform with both the middle and high school bands each school year.

Grades and Assignments
Most classwork assignments and grades come from playing your instrument and classwork participation during band class. Students are not graded based off of their skill level, but are instead asked to try their best every day in class to gain better skills and techniques on their instruments. Please see syllabi for more information.
