I enjoy being able to pass on my love for the harp to young people. After my own experience studying harp using the Suzuki method, I feel that it is one of the very best ways to gain a solid foundation both musically and technically. I primarily teach younger students, but am open to considering other ages.

I have been performing extensively in the northwest Chicago area for over 9 years in orchestras and as a solo harpist at events including weddings, receptions, fundraisers, grand openings, parties, etc...

I have been professionally trained as a classical harpist, having studied privately under Shirley Lukey (Suzuki), Alison Attar (Northwestern University), and others. Master class instructors include Liz Cifani (Northwestern University and Lyric Opera of Chicago), Jana Bouskova (Prague Conservatory and Czech Philharmonic Orchestra), Kayo Ishimaru (Jacksonville Symphony Orchestra), Ann Yeung (University of Illinois), and Suzann Davids (Valparaiso University).
