Allowing students to move forward at a pace that feels comfortable encourages confidence and reduces frustration, creating a more positive and productive learning experience. When students feel supported rather than rushed, they are more likely to remain engaged and committed to their musical studies.

These goals provide clear direction and help students understand what they are working toward, whether it involves mastering a new technique, improving rhythm, or completing a piece of music.

At the age of 17, I flew to Hollywood, CA to attend Musicians Institute where I studied Bass Guitar Performance. Learning from and playing with some of the best musicians in the business was amazing.

I was lucky enough to be in a few bands that landed indie recording contracts, which allowed me to tour nationally doing original music, with songs I had written being played on radio and on TV shows across the country.

I tailor a student's curriculum to their musical goals and needs, while making sure that I am instilling the fundamentals needed for pursuing music at the college scholarship level. Often this means scales, chords, arpeggios, music literacy, performance practice and listening skills.

I have a variety of method books in different styles and from different time periods, and will select, assign, and provide a Method book to a student based on the student's goals. Read More
