Summary

If you are looking for someone dedicated to going above and beyond in any work setting, look no further! I give my word, that everything asked of me has been nothing shy of above and beyond. I have had the pleasure of displaying my best work during my student teaching placements in the spring of 2024, all thanks to my College, The Crane School of Music at SUNY Potsdam and their fantastic Music Education Program. Id also like to thank my parents for my great work ethic. Since I was able to understand how the real world works, they have been hard on me for being the man I am today. Thank You!
