Welcome to my website! I have been performing and teaching oboe, English Horn and flute in the Diablo/Tri-Valley area for more than 25 years. I teach students 8 years and older, offer reed-making classes and encourage student recitals. I tailor my teaching to suit the needs and skill level of each student, give demonstrations at local schools and offer discounts for new referrals. I teach all year at my Walnut Creek home studio.

I received a Professional Music Certificate in Theory and Harmony from Berklee Music College. At Saint Mary’s College, I earned a BA in Oboe Performance where I studied with oboist Tom Nugent (UOP and SF Conservatory). I studied as well with English Hornist and oboist Russell DeLuna (SF Symphony and SF Conservatory), Eleanore Dusté (SF Ballet) and Lenore Gillard (Oakland Symphony). Additionally, I took flute lessons with Amy Likar (Oakland Symphony) and Tambre Thompson. I hold an MA from San Jose State University.
