Instruments: Piano Voice Trombone Drums Synthesizer Euphonium Tuba Music Keyboard

For beginning students who are children, I typically start with Hal Leonard's Essential Elements. Once the student has progressed to have a grasp of the fundamentals, I will begin to introduce solo repertoire appropriate for their first recital performance. For adults, I try to find out what the student is interested in, and guide my instruction accordingly to keep the lessons engaging and fun, no matter their ability level. Thank you for taking the time to read this I look forward to working with you. Read More

As I said before, I like to teach as I was taught and add things I've learned along the way. Learning any instrument, I was told, is like building a house; you need to lay a strong foundation upon which to add walls, doors, windows, and decor (styles, techniques, feels, and your own personal strokes unique to each individual....there's no roof because you can never finish learning!). Drums especially focus on the base, because of their role in any musical group. Read More

My teaching style is simple, it is to help you be the best musician that you can be! Whether it is working out of books, or playing to records. I want to help you get to the next level! Having fun is also a huge part of my lessons, if we are not having fun then what is the point? I like setting goals and lesson plans for my students so that we can track your progress together.
