Originally from Woodbury, Minnesota, Mr. Green pursued his college education at Gustavus Adolphus College in St. Peter, MN where he recieved a Bachelors Degree in Music Education in 2023. With extended family in nearby Grand Forks, I have spent a lot of time in this beautiful area of Minnesota. I have a wealth of experience teaching band at all levels, including marching and pep band, and I am eager to bring my passion for music education to this wonderful community.

My goal is to foster a band community that emphasizes teamwork and provides a variety of opportunities for students to express their love and excitement for music.
