Jadie Tenney

Office Manager

Jadie Tenney is so excited to be with the Hammer and Strings team and can’t wait to meet everyone who comes to the conservatory. With a background in music herself, there is nothing greater than being part of a wonderful team of musicians and faculty. 

Jadie was born and raised in Mesa, Arizona where she began learning piano at the age of 4. Piano quickly became her passion and she hasn’t stopped playing since. During her younger years, she performed as a solo artist in recitals and competitions. In her free time, she and her father would spend hours at the piano on a Sunday afternoon, one singing and the other accompanying. These afternoons became a pivotal moment in her life as she realized her love of singing as well. Jadie would never miss a moment to sing Les Miserables or Phantom of the Opera at the top of her lungs! In high school, Jadie started professional voice lessons and focused on many genres of music. She is currently studying voice with Carlos Feliciano at Arizona State University and will be graduating at the end of 2024 with a BA in Music. 

Along with piano and voice, Jadie plays the guitar and ukulele. She has taught lessons in piano, voice and guitar and musical theater classes to younger students. Jadie finds immeasurable joy in nurturing the growth of others, particularly in their pursuit of mastering their instruments and honing their talents. She understands the transformative power of mentorship and the importance of providing a nurturing environment where students can overcome their challenges and unlock new skills.

Aside from music, Jadie considers herself a very active person. She plays many sports (softball, volleyball, and pickleball are the favorites), is an avid gym goer (this has helped her singing tremendously!), and loves to spend time with her husband, Rhett, and their puppy, Kanan. When Jadie finds herself with nothing on the agenda, she takes the initiative to create opportunities to stay engaged, learn new things, connect with people, and make the most out of life. She is driven by a deep sense of commitment to everything in her life and strives to bring joy to those around her!
