She wanted to share her gift of music with others and started teaching harp lessons when she was 17.

students play scales, arpeggios, and technical exercises in
their lessons. I believe having a strong technical base is the foundation for

for students according to their technical progress and although I may
take into consideration a student's desires to learn a certain piece, there has

I hope we can take this journey in music together!

I teach the folk harp. This is a smaller harp of about 22-26 strings that plays in the major scale of C. I have built my own harps and love playing Irish tunes on them as well as popular folk music. I have performed weddings with my harp and seen first hand the peace and tranquility it both brings to the player and those who listen.
Lessons will aim to give the student the musical foundation and tools they need to explore this amazing instrument. Focus on many style of music and an aim to work toward playing the student's favorites songs will be a primary goal in addition to having a lot of fun! :)
