Hello & Welcome to Everyday Musicians!
I’m Jess - musician, teacher, & mom. I graduated from the University of South Carolina (B.M. Music Education) and the University of Delaware (M.M. Music Education). I spent over a decade working in music education with students ages 6 weeks through 90 years (yes - my oldest student was an amazing 90-year-old beginning clarinet player)! I taught instrumental music, general music, vocal music, adaptive music, and early childhood music.
I believe a quality music education can enrich the lives of children and families. I want to create a space for creativity, experimentation, connection, and growth.
Whether you are a seasoned professional or a complete beginner, everyone is welcome at Everyday Musicians. Come make music with us!
