About Me

I have experience teaching all ages and all abilities, from beginners looking to pick up a new skill to advanced players wanting to improve and express themselves and everything in between! I specialise in Celtic and Americana folk music, and can also teach general musicianship skills such as theory and writing music - whether you're learning to play by yourself or with others.

​

I started learning music when I was five years old, beginning with piano, which I continued with until I finished high school. I began studying violin when I was eight, beginning with classical music but soon focusing on traditional music. For a while, I took lessons on bagpipes, mandolin, guitar, and singing, and attended ensemble classes including string chamber orchestra, jazz ensemble and chorus.

 

I was fortunate to grow up in an area with a very lively music scene for a rural state, and - largely thanks to the Concord Community Music School - took advantage of all the opportunities I had to perform with and learn from local peers and professionals.

​

By the time I left New Hampshire to study traditional music and pursue a music career in Glasgow, I had been writing, arranging and performing in a band for four years. At university, I studied under Marie Fielding, Ali McCulloch, Greg Lawson, Jenn Butterworth, and many more of the best musicians and teachers in Scotland. I graduated from the Royal Conservatoire of Scotland in 2019 with an honours degree, getting top marks for my final recital, in which I was accompanied by Rory Matheson, who currently plays in Fara and Trip; and Rufus Huggan, fellow member of the Routes Quartet.​​
