Who Am I, Professionally

Over the past twelve years, I have worked constantly in the fields of music education and education management. My expertise has benefited students from Kindergarten through collegiate levels. My former business, Tucson LD Tutors, LLC, was credited with helping 98% of our clients have success, either by reaching the university they desired, or by being able to finish their degrees at the U of A. As an educator with extensive pedagogical training in online education, the skills that I have acquired and utilize in my daily work life are sought after by school districts, colleges, and private corporations. I am an expert in the D2L/Brightspace Learning Management System. Occasionally, you may see me around Southern Arizona performing with jazz bands or in the pit orchestra for stage productions.

I am a Subject Matter Expert at Pima Community College and Rocky Mountain College of Art & Design. I am also a lecturer at the University of Arizona.
