Hello! I am so excited to be at Wingate Elementary for my first year of teaching! Music has been a majority of my life for the last 12 years, and it is my privilege to get to teach young musicians! 

I graduated from SIUE in May of 2026 with a degree in Music Education. My musical journey started in 5th grade when I started the saxophone at school. Since then I have been involved in my high school marching band and concert ensembles, SIUE's basketball band, saxophone quartet, and Wind Symphony. I have worked with Belleville East and Collinsville High School marching bands, and was an ensemble assistant with the St. Louis Children's Choirs. 

Outside of music, I enjoy spending time with my family, traveling, and baking!
