With all of my students I am kind, patient, gentle, humorous, encouraging, and positive with my feedback. Students regularly give feedback on the music they are making, as well as any new ways they think I might be helpful to them.

The first lesson I ever gave was my junior year of high school. It was to a younger student down the hill at the middle school. A trombone lesson. At that moment I knew I wanted to teach. But not just music. I try to teach lessons of life as well. How to better yourself, how to help others, how to make people happy or remorseful, laugh, cry, dance, sing! Read More
