I strive to create an environment in my lessons where students have free to explore and express their passions and find their voice to become great musicians and people. In my lessons, I prioritize three main goals: technical proficiency, music literacy, and the performance of enjoyable repertoire.

Finally, musical literacy and technique come together in application of repertoire! Read More

I begin with a meeting. A meeting about you...How you are doing this fine day. We will make GREAT MUSIC together and learn more about music and the world's vibrations together.

You teach me while I teach you; then the music will flow from ALL DIRECTIONS! =) My philosophy is a simple one. "If you put the work in you will improve." We will go at the pace that you desire and what you show me you are prepared for. Read More

Typically, we begin with a repertoire of warm-up exercises custom-tailored to your instrument but also for your current skill level and learning style (as created by me). Read More
