With 20+ years of experience with guitar, vocals, drums, and percussion, and a stylistic reach that includes everything from jazz, blues, hip-hop, R&B, funk, and soul to classic rock, pop, singer-songwriter, Latin, reggae, world music, and beyond, I will assist you in cultivating the essential tools to take your musical journey to the next level, regardless of your age and musical background. Beginning in grade school when I started giving lessons to friends and family members, I have taught students from all walks of life; have had students that were young, old, and everything in between; and have taught both individuals who had never even touched an instrument in their lives and students who had been playing for many years.

Instruments: Drums Mallet Percussion Orchestral Percussion
When it comes to beginner students, I always start with a few basic rudiments to help build coordination and then I start off with basic drum rhythms. From there, I try to get them to a point where they can play through a song and hopefully get them to play through a favorite song of theirs. When it comes to advanced students, I ask them what they are looking to learn specifically, that way I can give them what they want and challenge them musically. Read More

Instruments: Guitar Trombone Drums Orchestral Percussion Djembe
For students who are young with no musical background I start with the Essential Elements series. At the next stage, I challenge the student based on their interests. I tend to push students to learn jazz, as its the basis for all drum set playing, but know that most kids are more interested in other more modern styles and accommodate them accordingly. I have a number of books that I can draw from, including Jim Chapin's jazz book, Syncopation, New Breed, Buddy Rich's book, and many more.. Read More
Instruments: Trombone
What do you think is the hardest thing to master on your instrument?
Besides the actual strength and flexibility of the embouchure, as well as general playing endurance, the hardest thing by far to master is your nerves. I've known so many students, as well as fellow musicians who, no matter how hard they train, are torn apart by their own nerves. Regular performances in different environments, in front of an audience, be it family, friends or strangers, will greatly alleviate this. I liken it to an emptying of the adrenal gland. The more often you empty it, the less adrenaline will be available to make your nerves go haywire in the next performance.
Have any of your students won awards or been selected for special honors? How have they succeeded?
I've had very many students over the years. I've had students get 1's in solos or ensembles. I've had students reach region and area in contests. I've had students get first chair or become principle trombone in their orchestra. I've had students pass their auditions to get into music school. I've had students excel in improvisation in their jazz ensembles. What makes me most proud is the fact that I've had so many students stay in music. Participating in music creates a unity and happiness of belonging. Creating that happiness in someone is very fulfilling.
What musical accomplishments are you most proud of?
I've performed at a sold out Hollywood Bowl. I've performed sold out shows with many artists I've been fans of since I was a child. I've performed in front of artists I've been a fan of since I was a child, with them standing right in front of me, watching me while I've performed. I've excelled in areas and performed in places other people I've performed with have been too afraid to. I've never let fear or nerves stop me. Most of all, I'm proud to be friends with, performed with, and be on an equal and first name basis with many stars I've admired growing up.
Why did you choose your primary instrument?
I started on cornet when I was 8 years old, in my closet, no lessons. It was given to me. When I was 11 years old a friend of my older sister's graduated from high school. He came over to my house and gave me his trombone. Why me? Maybe he liked my sister and wanted to impress her. To me, it was a light from heaven. It was beat up, in fact he used to beat on the bell with a drumstick when he was in the stands at football games. My father and I took it to the music store and got all of the dents taken out of it for $50. When I opened up the case and saw it, I knew what I wanted to do for the rest of my life. That trombone was recorded for The New York Times website a few years back. The recording won an Emmy.
