• I have been teaching in Springfield since 1994.  This is my first year at the HS/JH.  I have taught at Roosevelt, Lakemore, Schrop, Young and Spring Hill. This year I will be assisting with HS Band and 6th grade Band, and teaching Beginning Band and JH/HS Choirs.
     
    I am originally from Florida, but I have lived in Canada, Kansas, New York City, upstate New York, and even spent one year working as a traveling musician in ten countries in Europe.  She has a Bachelors degree in Music Performance from Manhattan School of Music, a Masters from Eastman School of Music, and a B.S. in Music Education from Kent State University (summa cum laude).  I originally moved to NE Ohio to play oboe in the Canton Symphony, which I continued for 15 years.
     
    I live with my husband and cat Oscar.  I spend my spare time hiking, kayaking, reading, sewing and getting together with friends.
