I am from music, sweet and free, Vibrant and Joyful, God’s gift to me.

I Bring…… I bring a gift to YOU, my students. What do I bring? I bring, to Share, God’s gifts to me. I am love, patience, smiles and humor. I bring music, knowledge, the love of sound, the joy of self expression, freedom from the expectations of the ordinary.

I love to swim, diving into the cold, icy glass, seeing the fish smiling at me, in a green world all my own.
