I believe...

when we step back, children have the space to step forward

teacher training can be accessible while being informative

the process is more important than the product

everybody wants to be heard

About Andrea

I have degrees in cello performance, music education, and mathematics

from Indiana University. I have a doctorate in cello performance and 

pedagogy from the University of Michigan. I've taught cello pedagogy at the University of Michigan, as well as cello and music education at the University of Texas at San Antonio and Bowling Green State University. I have been a private cello teacher for over 30 years and had a brief stint in the public schools for 2 years. I am a full-time member of the Michigan Opera Theatre and the Ann Arbor Symphony. I am a cello teacher trainer through the Suzuki Association of the Americas, and have been hired by Paul Katz to be on the CelloBello teacher training team. I live in Ann Arbor, MI, with my husband, stepson, and daughter.

I am an avid swing dancer, and I love Smoothie King.
