A little bit about me: I teach K-5 general music and choir in the Olentangy Local School District near Columbus, Ohio, but I've taught K-7 general music, band, choir, and strings over the course of my career. This is my eighteenth year teaching; previously, I taught in Lancaster City Schools as well as Utica Community Schools in Utica, Michigan. I received my Bachelor of Music Education from Central Michigan University in 1999, and my Master of Music in Music Education from Capital University in 2003; I was able to complete my masters studies at the Kodaly Institute in Kecskemet, Hungary. I am Past President of the Midwest Kodaly Music Educators of America, have taught Level I and III for DePaul University's Kodaly Program, and Level I Methodology and Folk Song Research for Colorado State University's Kodaly Program.
My family includes my husband Scott (who is a business analyst and a singer/songwriter), my twelve-year-old daughter Jenna (who plays flute and piano), and my four-year-old Macy (who we believe will be a percussionist, a vocalist, or a guitarist someday...or all of the above!) Here is a picture of all four of us from a few years ago...I will update this with a more recent picture soon!
I opened my TeachersPayTeachers store in the summer of 2012, and it has been a passion of mine since. I love sharing what has worked in my music room, and hearing from others that it has worked for them as well! I create lessons, activities, units, and classroom decor that have enriched my classroom and my students' education.
