Meet the teacher
Greetings! I am delighted to teach orchestra at Hillcrest Middle School. We are off to a great start, and it has been a pleasure teaching your children. This is my 12th year teaching orchestra and third year here at HMS. I have a Bachelor of Music from the University of North Carolina at Greensboro, and a Master's of Music from Converse College. My main instrument is viola, and I maintain a private studio of violin, viola, cello, and double bass students. I also play the viola on my church worship team and periodically with the Spartanburg Philharmonic Orchestra. I enjoy spending time with my husband and sweet baby girl Mary Heather. We are expecting our baby boy in October.
