About Me
Chrissy is originally from Rochester, MN (she graduated from Centruy High School), went out west to Lewis & Clark College in Portland, OR--graduating with a B.A. in Music Compostion & Education and Biochemistry/Molecular Biology. She has also completed a Masters in Education from Concordia University--Portland.
Chrissy started teaching in Rochester in 2010 during the summer seasons and all-year-round in 2012, growing the studio from one student to eleven! Students get individualised lessons, finding materials that work best for them at their pace, but with Chrissy's high expectations being the goal. We have a recital each spring and share holiday music each December at a local "Old Folks" home. Currently, Chrissy travels to all her students but hopes to find a home for the studio in the future.
When Chrissy isn't working on studio stuff, she is crafting (crochet, sewing, card-making), baking, directing handbells and teaching Sunday School at Bethel Lutheran Church, going to Color-Me-Mine with her family, travelling, tutoring at College Tutors, and hanging out with the coolest one-year-old around!
