Hi! This is my 6th year at Ducketts Lane ES and 18th year teaching in HCPSS. I started playing the viola in 4th grade and fell in love with it! My husband is also a musician (percussion). We have two children, Isabelle and Zachary. My hobbies include sewing, being outside, and traveling with my family!

Hi! I am the 5th grade chorus teacher and one of the general music teachers. This is my first year teaching at Ducketts Lane, and my seventh year teaching overall. Singing is one of my favorite things to do. I hope you will join chorus to sing more at school! Outside of music, I enjoy baking, reading, and spending time with dogs.

I am excited to be your band teacher at DLES! I received my bachelor's degree from the University of Wisconsin - Madison for Instrumental Music Education, and my master's degree in French horn performance from the San Francisco Conservatory of Music. I am originally from Howard County and greatly value music education and the vast resources we have here in the area. I will also be teaching band at Forest Ridge Elementary School this year. Outside of school, I teach French horn lessons, as well as work with HSGTO and other youth groups and ensembles. Outside of music, I like running, cooking, games, and playing with my cat Yomi. I look forward to being able to make music with you all this year.
