I am the Professor of Flute at UMass Amherst, a Wm. S. Haynes Artist and the principal flute of Boulder Chamber Orchestra.
Teaching is my passion! When I consider my teaching and learning strategies I can honestly say that I have lived all the ideals I promote. There are three principles I instill in my students to make them well-rounded musicians: diversity and inclusion, injury and pain prevention and authenticity in performance.
Born in South Africa, I grew up in an extremely diverse culture which recognizes eleven official languages and hosts a population with greatly varying economic circumstances. It is in this environment where I saw that music can provide hope, comfort and joy in times where circumstances are uncertain.
