Personal Life: 

I am a passionate percussionist who was born and raised in West Virginia. Throughout my percussive journey, I have performed, studied, and taught percussion in many diverse ensembles all over the U.S. and Brazil. I am SO excited to share my passion for percussion with the hard-working staff and students of the "Pride of the East."

I currently reside in McKinney with my two cats Sombra and Cleo. When I am not teaching, you will find me hiking and biking in nature, sipping on finely brewed coffees, and exploring all the towns/neighborhoods in DFW. When it comes to sports, I'm a big fan of IndyCar and Formula1 racing and enjoy watching the occasional hockey match. 

I am so excited to join the students and staff of Raider Nation!
