Welcome to band! I have been teaching instrumental and vocal music for 18+ years. Currently I teach 6th grade band in Papillion La Vista Community Schools in Nebraska. During my free time I enjoy playing in the saxophone quartet 'Joy of Sax.' We have been together for over a decade and play at a variety of area events. I also participate in various community theaters in the Omaha area and manage a saxophone/clarinet music studio in my home. I believe music is a vital component of any education, and instrumental music specifically enhances the soul and opens the mind in ways unlike any other discipline. Welcome to my class. Let's make some music!
