About Me
As a former Suzuki student I began my studies at the age of 5 with Clorinda Noyes, Director of the New England Suzuki Institute. I went on to study with Ronald Lantz of the Portland String Quartet, followed by Matt Glaser while attending Berklee College of Music. I have had incredible opportunities to perform and travel around the World incorporating many different styles of music and meeting wonderful musicians throughout my journey. This passion has led me home, bringing with me my knowledge and love of the violin to my students here in Maine.
