During my student days I was the beneficiary of excellent school music programs, outstanding teachers and mentors and youth orchestras. I enjoy sharing my experience by nurturing and encouraging young musicians at all levels of accomplishment. I have enjoyed working on the faculties of Third Street Music School, Trinity School and having roles as string teacher, conductor, chamber music coach, and private instructor for both violin and viola.

I have recently spent time as a teaching artist and mentor at a NYC public school in a new program. Summers at the Meadowmount School of Music have been spent guiding and coaching chamber music groups and have proved to be intensive work in an idyllic setting. I feel fortunate to work with accomplished, dedicated students and am excited to serve as conductor of the Carnegie Hill Orchestra of the InterSchool Orchestras of New York. ISO produces performances in Symphony Space, Lincoln Center, and Carnegie Hall, museums and school assemblies to much acclaim.

My work with adults, in addition to adult violin and viola students includes current work conducting and adult string ensemble at Third Street Music School, ​conducting the orchestra at Stevens Institute of Technology and past leadership of the string ensemble at Baruch College, CUNY.
