Greatbatch
School of Music

As the Associate Professor of Violin & Viola at Houghton University - Greatbatch School of Music, I direct all string-intensive events at the university, including our own summer string festival. In addition, I oversee the string program at Houghton Academy - an International Christian Boarding School - exclusively for middle and high school students.
