Hello, I began teaching professionally 9 years ago in my home studio. I first started with guitar lessons. I am very passionate about aiding and supporting the growth of students. I provide students with the skills needed for the complete understanding of the language of music. This equips the student to learn any kind of music that is desired. Students are then able to learn classical, jazz, blues, rock, and popular music. Read More

With any student who is in a beginning sort of stage with their musicality, I will start off by teaching them basic techniques, simple notes or chords(dependent on the type of instrument), and rudimentary knowledge of the notational system. Once they have started to make some progress, I take a unique approach by asking them of their own opinion for where they would want to see themselves go. I do this to not only make it as exciting as possible for the student, but to help them achieve a vision they already have for themselves. Read More

Instruments: Saxophone
What is your favorite style/genre of music to play and why?
Jazz music is my favorite to play because it stimulates the brain in many different ways. I was introduced to it at a young age and immediately took interest in how all the notes were being played. When I found out that they weren't looking at music when playing, I thought it was the best thing I'd ever learned! The art of improvisation is very complex and it's an ever-growing form of music. The interaction between all the members playing in a jazz setting is one of the coolest things to witness once the genre is explored in the slightest.
If you play more than one instrument, how did you decide to start playing the second? (Or 3rd, 4th, 5th, etc)!
When I began saxophone, I knew I wanted to eventually play all the different types and with the help of my school's music program, I was able to before going to college. I started with the alto saxophone which is of course, the most popular amongst students. Then I went on to play the Baritone sax in marching band and tenor and soprano after that. While in University, we were challenged with the task of mastering other woodwind instruments that helped expand our canvas of sound. I've also experimented with drum technique and basic piano.
Does music run in your family? Tell us a little about your musical family members.
Music doesn't run in my immediate family. It does, however, have influence over a small group of cousins. The same cousin that inspired me to pick up the sax also sings and plays guitar. I learned a lot from him by learning from ear and not being intimidated by playing in front of others. I use to watch him perform with rock and funk bands. His dad is also the lead singer in his own band. They play often at different venues around the city I grew up in. Their family is a large part of my musical journey.
When did you decide to become a professional musician? Was it a gradual decision or was there a defining moment for you?
I decided that I wanted to pursue a career in music once I learned it was possible through the knowledge of a professor from Western Michigan University. He and a group of nine played a brief show to demonstrate their skills and talk to us about the different degrees offered at WMU. We bought their CDs from them and got to talk to them directly after the show. I had such a revelation that day because I never knew that people could go to school for something like that, let alone make an entire career from it.
