"I am a well rounded individual with many interests and a broad range of experience. My Graduate course work contained a great deal of History, Philosophy, Art History, Literature and Music History. My Master's Thesis was on Jane Austen's works and their modern representations on stage and screen.

I am an Adjunct Professor of Humanities and Music at LSSU, as well as the Music Director at a local non-profit community arts school. I play violin, viola and clarinet semi-professionally, and have been both a private studio teacher (for 10+ years) and a Strings Specialist in a school. I conduct several area youth and community orchestras, and run summer camps for children in musical theatre and music.

Because I earned my MA through a distance program from California State University, I am comfortable working in an on-line format, as well as in person." less...
