Let me
tell you a little bit about myself!
In addition to teaching bassoon, coaching
chamber ensembles, and performing, I also am the Assistant Director of the
Lionel Hampton School of Music.
I am very active as a performer. I normally
perform on at
least one recital each year, in addition to performing both orchestral
and chamber music extensively (see below).
When not
making reeds, I enjoy reading, hiking, road and mountain biking, and eating
fine food with my husband Tom.
