As a professional musician myself, I am constantly working with new people and within new musical territories.

I possess a large rhythmic vocabulary from a variety of related and disparate traditions. Read More

I strive to ignite passion in my students. With passion, a student will be able to express themselves musically in any way they would like through their instrument. By doing so, these students may go out into the real-world and say what they need to say and communicate with other musicians. This will not only develop their musical sense but also will develop their personality and their way of life. Read More
