Whether I'm teaching rock music, orchestral music, or even marching band techniques, my goal is to give students the skills and tools they need to have fun and be successful. Read More

I am a very enthusiastic and passionate instructor! I am a composer, song-writer, pianist, and guitarist. I have been writing, performing and producing music for well over a decade in addition to teaching. I am also an experienced singer, though I have had minimal formal training in this. I have been singing songs and fiddling on instruments for as long as I can remember. It wasn't until my adult life that I finally pursued a thorough education. Read More

I am a performer and educator with a lifelong passion for music and music education. I graduated from the University of Kansas with a Bachelor of Music in Music Composition in 2016, my primary instrument of study in that time being drums. Although I am primarily a drummer and composer, my love for music goes back to when I started taking violin lessons when I was 4 years old. I have had many great musical experiences since then, including a youth orchestra performance at Carnegie Hall! Read More

I am sure to acknowledge accomplishments, not only by finding and setting milestones with each student to discover during lessons, but by (as effectively as I can) creating opportunities for students to perform a recital and demonstrate what they have learned for friends and family.

I work to get to know the student to understand how they learn but also what circumstances might be troubling them and affecting their ability to learn happily and effectively. Read More

I want to find out each student's skill level, and start from there. For beginners, I try to keep thing informal and fun while teaching basics without putting any pressure to get into the technical stuff like hand technique and reading until they're ready. For intermediate students, I nudged them along with weekly lessons that are challenging enough to keep them engaged - this includes reading, hand technique and limb independence. Read More
