​1. Where do you currently teach? Overton High School in Memphis
 
2. What is your alma mater? Overton High School in Memphis
Serendipitous, isn’t it?
 
3. How long have you been teaching? 11 years
 
4. What has been one of your favorite pieces of music to perform with your students? Procession of the Sardar from Caucasian Sketches
 
5. What instrument do you play? Violin, Viola
 
6. Tell us one thing about you that people would be surprised to know or something you are passionate about besides teaching.
I spent 20 years as a manager in the financial services industry before I decided to return to music, and take up teaching. I also love to go fishing!
 
7. What is your favorite thing about your school or community? In my orchestra, my students’ parents are the best, and they are serious about their children being productive, professional and positive in the public’s eyes. It’s the one thing that keeps me pushing ahead, even when the chips are down.
