I am a motivated instructor who is extremely passionate about music, learning, and having a great time while doing both! I have taught students ranging from 3 years old to 65 years old. My approach is that we work hard, but have a really fun time accomplishing our goals. I like to engage students quickly by showing them that they can learn to play something on their instrument very quickly, but then we dive in to the theory of what we just played. Read More

I feel each of my students are unique. I love watching my students' level of musical understanding progress. I love seeing the dedication and determination begin to heighten as the lessons progress. Within each lesson I point out areas that need to be worked on as well as areas of improvement. Seeing one's progress is the most important element to me for my students. Therefore, I like to record my students quarterly for a few minutes within a lesson to show the mass amounts of improvement they will accomplish. Read More
