Faculty & Staff

There are musicians—people dedicated to their art. And there are teachers, who are passionate about helping emerging artists grow. And then there are people who embrace both their art and teaching. These people are rare, but they do exist. Our faculty and staff are people who are passionate about music and the industry, and desire to pass their passion on to another generation.
