What experience do you bring to this class?
I have written several pieces for a variety of ensembles and my orchestral composition was premiered by the Duluth Superior Symphony Orchestra. Some of my other works can be heard at the Weisman Art Museum and in the Quarter Gallery. I have completed two degrees in music and very much enjoy teaching it!
