​Some of my students call me Miss J!

 

I am a musician and painter based in Birmingham, AL. 

 

With a Bachelor's degree in Music Therapy and a Master's degree in Human Development, I bring a whole-person approach to art and music.

My teaching approach emphasizes tailoring lessons to individual interests and needs, fostering engagement and enjoyment.

​

We will always start with what YOU are interested in learning. It's about YOUR goals, not mine. 

 

As an Autistic individual with multiple chronic illnesses, I understand the importance of flexibility, which I extend to my clients.

​

I work especially well with neurodivergent people, but of course I enjoy neurotypical people as well. 

​

In addition to teaching, I sell my paintings and offer a variety of creative services, including live music for events and paint parties

Outside of my home, I am doing music therapy work in the Birmingham community. 

​

If you are interested in learning music or art with me, please contact me!
