Instruments: Trumpet, Trombone, Saxophone, Clarinet

I am a Music Educator with a lot of trumpet playing experience. I have never stopped playing my trumpet. I practice my trumpet as time permits and perform every chance I have. I like to travel and study musical styles and instruments from different countries. I also love the outdoors. I am passionate about instrumental music and want my students to feel the same. I want them to share in the knowledge that music is a special skill they will have all of their life and I hope that they will be enthusiastic about sharing their skills, knowledge and love of music with others.

Additionally, I like to work with scales and long tones in a more advanced way, expanding the range of the instrument and tone quality as we prepare repertoire. With students interested in jazz, either as their primary course of study or in addition to classical music, we focus even more on scales and arpeggios, aiming to master first the most commonly used keys and then expanding to 12 key mastery. I like to begin with a play-along book like Jamey Aebersold's "Maiden Voyage", stressing the beginnings of improvisation, then moving on to more advanced tunes and chord progressions. Read More

As a drummer that has played in all kinds of styles and venues, I can teach any skill level from the first time picking up sticks to making good drummers great and great drummers legendary.

In the short time I have been with my current school, we have been awarded 3 awards: one for best in class, one for superior rating, and one band of distinction. Read More

Nothing is more rewarding than seeing one of my students excel at their lessons! Therefore, it's important that each student progresses at his or her own pace. I encourage this by setting achievable goals for each lesson. I foster a positive environment. I am open to questions. Please ask them! In addition, I teach you how to listen while you play. This will help you advance easier because you won’t have to go back to fix any errors you might have learned. Read More
