I have an Undergraduate and Masters degree in Elementary Music Education. I am Level 3 Kodaly Certified, which means I can teach your children to read music, learn folk songs and games, and use many methods to teach your children to listen and enjoy music. I am available to teach private piano, voice, drama, and ukulele lessons if you are interested. I have directed and taught music theatre productions and camps for children ages 5-18.

Kali is an amazing sitter, reliable, very communicative and very warm. My kitties felt instantly at ease with her and they were very well taken care of by her during my absence. Lucky to have found her!
