About Ann
Homeschool Program Leadership
I have been organizing and leading homeschool programs since 2010. It has been a wonderful and challenging journey in entrepreneurship, leadership, community, and relationships. Tiffany and I founded A TEAM in 2013 and I’m so proud to call this my community!
The valuable education I have received in leadership and business didn’t come from a formal institution with degrees and titles but from books, seminars, and business training.
Music Teaching
Music has been part of my life since age 7, when my mom bought a piano and started teaching me. I followed that with violin in 4th grade, and played in orchestras, jazz bands, and small groups, and started teaching piano lessons at age 15. I got the singing bug while in youth choir at church, started singing in choirs in high school, and decided to pursue my passion to teach choral music. At San Jose State University I sang with the Concert Choir and Choraliers, completed my BA in Music and CA teaching credential. I had a 2 1/2 year public school teaching career at Hayward Unified School District, teaching elementary, middle school, and high school choral music before having children. I have continued through the years to teach piano and have been teaching vocal and ensemble music for homeschoolers for many years.
