For beginning students who are children, I typically start with an Etude and music theory based curriculum. Once the student has progressed to have a grasp of the fundamentals, I will begin to introduce solo repertoire appropriate for their first recital performance. For adults, I try to find out what the student is interested in, and guide my instruction accordingly to keep the lessons engaging and fun, no matter their ability level. Read More

I began teaching at the age of 19 and within one year ended up teaching over 70 drummers weekly at four different locations in which I managed 2 of them. I then went on to open my own studio in 2007 to great success. Recently, desiring more musical adventures, I've decided to relocate to Las Vegas in search of more music opportunities in The Music Business. I have taught thousands of drummers and guitar players over the year and am looking forward to teaching thousands more! Read More
Instruments: Flute Drums
I began teaching private lessons two years ago. I have taught about ten students in my life, and only taught them what they were specifically passionate about. I believe practicing is important, but I do not believe assigning homework is an effective way to make music fun for a student. Music is pointless without the will to learn and the desire to practice. Students will progress only as far they want to take their talents. Read More
Instruments: Drums
From there, we hone in on technique, reading and transcription. In addition to the technical aspect of music, which can be intimidating to the beginner (which I can fully relate to!), we do extensive listening, partly for enjoyment, partly for analysis. My goal is for all these things to help the student develop a deep understanding of music, the drumset and its role in many different styles, preparing them for a successful career as a professional musician.

I started learning at the age of 11 and studied all through out high school. I studied with various local teachers after High School and met Mike Mangini in 1999 at a drum clinic. I was blown away with his expertise and was encouraged by him to learn jazz. I entered Berklee in 2004 where I met Rick Considine and studied with him for a year after he mentioned three of my favorite rock drummers in one sentence. Read More

We're gonna consistently work hard and always keep it fun. Read More
Instruments: Drums
If you play more than one instrument, how did you decide to start playing the second? (Or 3rd, 4th, 5th, etc)!
I play some guitar and I can move around a piano. The reason is that, when you get passionate about music, you want to try and make more music, understand it better.
What do you think is the hardest thing to master on your instrument?
Patience, discipline and the mechanical aspect of the drumset. Once the mechanical aspect (how and what to do) is solve, then you have taken a big step on your instruement.
If you have a Music Degree, what is it in (Performance, Education, Musicology, Theory, Composition, etc) and why did you choose that degree?
Bachelor's Degree on Arts, Perfomance Drum Set and a Minor in Latin Studies and Performance. I always love to play music and I wanted to get better at it. Play different styles and learn from amazing professors.
Why did you choose your primary instrument?
It started with the visual aspect. Seeing a drummer play seen a lot of fun. When I sat down and play the drum set for the first time, I was struck by the sound and vibration. It pulled me right away.
What musical accomplishments are you most proud of?
I got to study at Berklee College of Music and play with musicians from all over the world. Met amazing people and learn from teachers and other students. I was the president of a student group called Rhythm Club were we hosted clinics and had the chance to met percussionist from all over the world. I started my own project as band leader with profesional musicians. I also had the oportunity to tour and perform on 12 different states.
I have given clinics and in and outside the United States.
Did you have a teacher that inspired you to go into music? How did they inspire you?
It was not a teacher per se. I always loved music and the visual of drums and the drummer playing caught my attention. I had teachers who inspired me to play more and better and still, I get inspired when I hear someone play.
How do I know if my child is ready to start lessons?
There is no specific answer but rather different opinions. In my opinion, when the child has a sense of discipline then that is a good sign. Having a lesson requieres the student to pay attention to what the teacher is saying. Patience from the teacher is a must but the willingness of the student must be there as well.
When will I start to see results?
It depends on how well the student have manage to understand the information given plus the time invested on practicing. Setting short and long term goals helps the student see the results of his dedication.
What advice do you have about practicing effectively?
Don't practice random things, avoid distractions, take brakes from your practice session, and set short and long term goals. Everytime you sit down and focus when you practice, you are becoming mor efficient in this process. Consistency is the key.
