My mission is to create a space where creativity, growth, and fun come together through music. I believe that learning an instrument should not only improve your technical ability but also help you grow as a well-rounded musician. In my lessons, I focus on building the skills you need to reach your goals while helping you explore those tricky musical questions you might not have answers to yet. I carefully track each student’s development and adjust my teaching style to support your personal growth, learning pace, and musical interests. Read More

My teaching style is laid back with the full intention of moving forward in both technique and enjoyment. Each Lesson is geared toward the Goals we agree on as Student and Teacher. Depending on age and experience, I set goals at 3 months or 6 months. It is crucial to allow the student to learn at his or her own rate. Again, I strive to find the Creativity in the Student and to see how that can be developed as quickly as possible, especially if they are interested in songwriting, singing, composition, or simply doing their "own thing".

But I know that for children, you start with the basics and work your way up! Read More

Every student is different.  Music Theory, various styles and forms and performance are all important and part of the main focus.  I also like them to learn songs and styles that they enjoy. It's important for them to pick up their instrument every day, develop their calluses and coordination.  I find this not only encourages them to play and explore more on their own, but keeps their focus on developing their own style.
