hello
Hello everybody! I am a lurker no more! I am an early-career music teacher at a Kindergarten thru Second Grade school in the U.S. I am interested in using Zettelkasten to improve my understanding of music teaching and learning, as well as aid in graduate studies that I might pursue in the near future. My current barrier is building the regular habit of writing in my Zettelkasten, which for now lives in Obsidian.
Current research interests: music teaching and learning, Kodály method, folk music, social change, childhood development, mental health.
Music interests: I studied trombone at college, but now I mostly play piano and ukulele while I teach my students. I mostly listen to genres like alt rock and electronic pop, but my partner has introduced me to the wonderful world of Carnatic music.
Hobbies: Reading fiction, video games (right now I am playing Hades on PC), drawing pulli kolam, nature trails, lifting weights.
