About the owner

I taught public school music for 5 years, both in elementary classrooms and middle school band, orchestra, and general music. As much as I loved the kids, one of my favorite parts of the job was fixing the broken instruments to the best of my knowledge.

When I moved to Colorado, I attended Colorado Institute of Musical Instrument Technology where I learned more advanced skills of repairing woodwinds, brass, and string instruments.

I was also raised by two entrepreneur parents, so naturally that is a concept I am no stranger to. I started KCMR to help fill a need in the nearby schools to keep their inventory functional for any and all students who want to play an instrument.
