About
A percussionist with 19 years of professional performing and instructing experience and currently a student pursuing a career in Speech-Language Pathology and Linguistics, I am passionate about cultivating a love for language and music with as many as possible. As an educator, I have curated many specialized lesson programs for students of all ages in perfecting the instrument of rhythm. As a student I am learning the applications and methodology in which one finds the original, more preeminent instrument of rhythm: the voice. Communication is essential. Creativity is paramount.
