Miss Pam has been specializing in teaching young and adult beginners on piano, guitar (acoustic, electric and bass), banjo, mandolin and ukulele for 6 years. Miss Pam is "up" on most of the current tunes that appeal to our students and incorporates that genre in their lessons as well as traditional music. Miss Pam is the founder of "Time 4 Reeds" Clarinet Quartet where she performs on the Bass Clarinet. She plays Bb and A Clarinet in the Wabash College Chamber Orchestra (2 years), Bass Clarinet in the Montgomery County Civic Band (11 years), both Bb and Bass Clarinet in the Lafayette Citizens Band (for 8 seasons) and sings tenor in the Wabash Ave Presbyterian Church Choir.
