My philosophy is rooted in 31 years of diverse music experience. As a musician, teacher, and producer, I've learned to inspire and motivate students to reach high standards.
My major in music education at McMaster exposed me to various pedagogical techniques like Kodaly, Orff, and more, fostering a love for music while nurturing individual growth. I value creativity, skill development, and personal potential.
