She received her B.M. in Clarinet performance at UTC and now holds a Master of Music degree in clarinet performance from Baylor University, in Texas. An active performer, Tejero is a frequent recitalist and soloist appearing with the Cadek Chamber Orchestra, the Southern Adventist University Orchestra, the UTC Orchestra and the Chattanooga Symphony Orchestra. She is a founding member and president of the Chattanooga Clarinet Society. Tejero is the coordinator of clarinet studies, teaches Music Theory and directs the UTC Clarinet Ensemble.<\/p>\n
