About Me

A little about me... I teach music and play music in Southern California. My place of employment for the past let's not say how many years has been Antelope Valley College, in the high high desert of Lancaster/Palmdale. Many classes have I taught there. Many ensembles have I conducted. Many students have come and gone. Many shows have opened and closed. One bit of wisdom remains the same: If you marry a guitar player, you will always find picks in your laundry. (don't forget that one!) My husband Dennis is a really cool cat and I like hanging out with him because he is handsome and smart and funnier than anyone on the planet, honest! okay. I really don't have much profound to say. I'm more of a song and dance kinda chick. thank god those who know me forgive my lack of intellectual prowess. Give me an orchestra to conduct, or a musical puzzle to solve, or a bunch of clouds to draw, or my dog to walk, or ceramic surfaces to clean, and I'm a happy girl. This layout was handmade with love by the folks at My space or yours? Go get one!
