My Cello Story

I started playing the cello when I was 8 years old and have loved it ever since! In high school, I was a member of the world renowned Portland Youth Philharmonic. I studied with a cello scholarship at Brigham Young University where I earned a degree in Cello Performance.

​

After school I moved to Medford, Oregon where I taught some amazing people. I also was a part of the Rogue Valley Symphony, which was the first time I got paid to play in an orchestra.

​

I've now been teaching in Utah for 4 years and I love thinking of ways to improve the studio and help my students progress!​

​

Besides cello I love to ski (I'm always the least skilled on the slopes), bike, hike, bake, go shopping, and read. I also work as a volunteer in the CASA program that helps foster kids in need. My biggest passion, though, is spending time with my playful young daughters and husband.
