Ms. Brown is the founder of the Alameda Cello Academy where she teaches daily. She has played with many orchestras including the Houston Symphony, the Tucson Symphony and the Brooklyn Philharmonic. She has performed beside many great artists such as Ray Charles, Luciano Pavarotti, Andreas Bocelli, Dizzy Gillespie and Itzak Perlman.

When Ms. Brown is not teaching or performing music she loves to take long walks on the beach beside the ocean with her quirky golden doodle dog named Biscuit.
I teach all kinds of music with the basic elements being stressed: scales and arpeggios! I would say I am very encouraging and supportive while being demanding at the same time, a win win combination!
