About Us
Meet Our Director
Sharing a passion for music
Every week, I strive to create opportunities for expression and learning by establishing a positive, upbeat, and engaging environment where students feel comfortable and confident. We have amazing students who are enthusiastic and delightful to work with. A music educator is to celebrate not only the performance, but the process, and that is my goal.
As we have grown, the Lord has brought other music & theater teachers and administrators who share my passion for the fine arts and the homeschooling community. So thankful for our Troubadours family!
