My number one rule when doing anything is have fun and I teach with the mind set that my students will have fun playing their instruments. Read More

It is of paramount importance to me that I impart my experiential and theoretical knowledge of all things music unto the student in a personally tailored fashion which emphasizes the knowledge necessary for each individual student to identify and achieve their musical goals.
