Instruments: Piano
For beginning students who are children, I typically start with a method book in order to introduce finger numbers and good technique. We build more and more skills as time progresses. Depending on the student, we may depart from the method book and learn more substantial songs; I'm very good with adapting to the skill levels and strengths of each student. With older students, since they generally have a better feel for what songs/composers they like, I will give them more freedom to choose their own songs and work with them from there. Read More

Instruments: Piano
My methods, practices and philosophies are first to get to know the student. What are their goals, expectations, likes/wants/needs, etc. - as I get to know the student, I will tailor the teaching materials to them. Whether it is Leonard, Bastien, Alfred (I have used them all), an eighth note is an eighth note, but you can play an eighth note in pop, rock, classical, jazz, show tunes, etc.. Read More

For piano ages 7-12: I typically start with Primer Piano Adventures or Level 1. I also use Keith Snell Scale Skill Levels for skill and chord practices which is helpful for all kinds of music! For guitar and ukulele: Hal Leonard guitar and ukulele method. These books also teach reading the notes in sheet music and understanding how to play them on the guitar or ukulele, as well as including a tab. Read More
Instruments: Piano
My method of teaching puts emphasis on the keyboard fundamentals that develop sound piano technique. I use a systematic approach in which the student progresses from their present level, whatever it may be, beginner, intermediate, or advanced, to their next level in a reasonable time. For students at the beginning or intermediate-beginning levels, I would choose from the Faber, Albert, Leonard, or Thompson piano methods. I always give the student after each lesson a method of practice for the music/lessons required. Read More
Instruments: Piano Trombone
My teaching experience comes from a variety of different sources for the last 8 years. During college, I taught at my alumni as a summer marching band assistant. During that time, I also taught trombone and piano lessons to students around the Waco area. I have also taught as a elementary music teacher for two years, and I bring those skills with me to my lessons studio. For students of all ages, I give out as much encouragement and guidance as I can, but ultimately, I want students to become their own critiques. Read More

My process for working with new voice students begins with an initial intake form, where I learn about your musical background, goals, and any specific areas youd like to improve. Following this, we schedule a first Discovery Lesson. This initial lesson allows us to get to know each other, assess your current abilities, and establish a baseline. Based on this assessment, I create a personalized lesson plan tailored to your unique needs and aspirations. Read More
Instruments: Trumpet Saxophone Flute Clarinet
When did you decide to become a professional musician? Was it a gradual decision or was there a defining moment for you?
I decided to become a professional Musician once I was accepted to the Chicago symphony youth orchestral in the 4th grade. I was hired by the University of Chicago to teach private lesson to high school students when I was a sophomore In highs school. This has been a awesome journey and I am ready to plant plenty more seed into the new students that will allow me to embark upon their journey as a musician.
Does music run in your family? Tell us a little about your musical family members.
Yes music runs in my family. My grandmother had 12 children and all of them sang in the choir and played different instruments . They was called the Crosby Harmonizers and they performed throughout Chicago IL. I come from a family of 6 and my mother played the clarinet, my brothers sang in the choir, and two of them played the trumpet. One of my brothers was accepted to the same college I went to on a full scholarship playing his trumpet. My sister and I did clarinet and flute duets in the church. I Have a 7 year old daughter that plays the clarinet and she is in the north Memphis mass marching band.
If you have a Music Degree, what is it in (Performance, Education, Musicology, Theory, Composition, etc) and why did you choose that degree?
I currently have a Bachelors of Science in Music Performance. Being introduced to music at a very young age lead me into wanting to continue my passion with music. My gift made room for me to teach students something that is very special to this world. Music is something special and it relax our mind and prepare for peaceful environment.
What is your favorite style/genre of music to play and why?
I love to play gospel, classical, R&B, Hiphop, Jazz, Marching band music and the list goes on.
If you play more than one instrument, how did you decide to start playing the second? (Or 3rd, 4th, 5th, etc)!
Once you learn how to play the clarinet, its very easy to learn the saxophone and flute because they are very similar in many ways .
What does a normal practice session look like for you?
A normal practice section usually runs between 45min to a 1hr. We will have warm up time and then we will proceed in to our normal lesson. I will allow students to help me to better assist them on what they will like to learn and accomplish through out their lesson. If the students have any music from school that they need to tackle and work on we will work on that as well as the material I have prepared for the lesson. Sight reading rhythms and cross curriculum assignment will also be apart of our weekly lessons.
