About me:
I grew up in Arkansas. Moved to Tennessee for college, where after graduation, I met and married my husband. We lived in Memphis, TN for 33 years. We had 4 children who are all grown and on their own.
My husband and I moved to Easley last year for a position for my husband. Currently we only have one pound-puppy, Misha, but for 30 years we kept all kinds of critters - donkeys, chickens, and milk goats. I’m a farm gal at heart!
My education/experience:
- I earned my BFA from the University of Memphis.
- I earned Suzuki training from a private music school that I helped manage and teach.
- This past summer I received level 1 Kodaly training. I’m looking forward to finishing all 3 levels.
- I have 20+ years teaching music, violin, and guitar in two music academies that produced special concerts and musicals.
- Just prior to coming to South Carolina I spent a year teaching music at a private school while teaching private lessons from home.
- This is my first year at MSA. I’m looking forward to many more.
My favorite things:
- Book/Movie - Les Misérables
- Color - Coral
- Food/Snack - Dark chocolate
- Activity/Hobby - Gardening
- Vacation spot - Arkansas with family
- Your favorite thing about teaching at MSA - the family spirit and wonderful children
