I’m an experienced and dedicated educator, researcher, and musician. I was most recently a graduate teaching assistant at Middle Tennessee State University, where I taught an undergraduate music theory class and offered theory, counterpoint, and orchestration tutoring. I also assisted in the instruction of music history courses. Other work experience includes 9 years of professional performing (voice, piano, and guitar), leadership roles such as serving as a choir leader and a musical director, historical research, and 5 years experience tutoring music theory. My research to date has included early medieval music, musical narrative in The Lord of the Rings film trilogy, English Renaissance literature, and cultural identity in Viking metal. I have a bachelor’s degree in music (theory and composition specialization - magna cum laude), have completed graduate coursework in musicology, and will earn a master’s degree in music in 2024.
I tutor the following subjects:
Music Theory
Music Composition
Songwriting
Music History / Musicology
Essay Writing
Humanities Research
As your tutor, I will prioritize your academic, professional, and personal aspirations. I believe that the most effective learning is sourced from genuine enjoyment and passion, and I aim to make this part of your tutoring experience. I have very flexible availability and am able to accommodate a wide variety of both online and in-person options. So, whether you’re looking to ace your high school or college classes, develop your voice as a songwriter or composer, or improve your writing skills, I’d love to help you achieve your goals!
