Teaching

One of my greatest passions in life is creating the next generation of artists. I proudly come from a long line of educators and I'm even a third generation piano teacher! After graduating college I started teaching voice and piano at a music studio in Dallas/ Fort Worth. I helped lead the creation of that studio's theatre department which led to my promotion to the theatre's Artistic Director. Building the theatre department included creating and implementing curriculum, hiring and training new teachers, and overseeing the department. In my five years there I directed, musical directed, choreographed, and even wrote more shows than I can remember!​
