Hi! I’m Emily.
I’m a musician and educator specializing in inclusive education. As a neurodivergent teacher, I’m passionate about making learning more accessible for all children, especially those who may “fall through the cracks” in traditional settings. Seeing young faces light up with joy when they learn something new is the best part of my job!

As a child, I loved music, but struggled with private instruction.
Sitting still, practicing every day, and focusing on music that didn't interest me were challenges that no amount of self-discipline seemed to solve. Teachers did not know how to best support me, and my learning eventually hit a wall.
As a teacher, I aim to identify barriers and find supports to help children learn music and build confidence in their abilities.
I shape lessons around student interests and goals. We use resources such as method books, sheet music, and practice logs when helpful, and find alternative tools if not.
