I help musicians of all ages and levels build musical knowledge and hone technical proficiency and efficiency while maintaining the joy of making music.

I carry on the traditions of Frøydis Ree Wekre, Julie Landsman, Norman Schweikert, and the Chicago Style of horn playing.

In my teaching, I emphasize artistic and personal integrity as well as helping each individual to become their own best teacher. 

I’ve been a principal horn player for thirty-five years. I bring a distinctive sound to every project I undertake and regularly collaborate with world class musicians.

As a professional musician with years of consulting experience, I work with individuals, chamber groups, large symphonic sections, and full orchestras.

I have a diploma in professional coaching from Gothia Academy. I also work with the mindset and awareness program Friendly Eyes.
