I am a passionate, self-motivated, energetic music instructor who loves work with students and sharing my love of music. In 2016, I graduated from South Carolina State University with a Bachelor of Arts degree in Music Industry and minored in Music Education. Within those studies, my primary instrument of focus was the trombone, however, along the way, I picked up and worked on different types of instruments, such as the flute, all of the low brass, piano, and my vocal ability.

Piano students will also learn basic rhythm comping skills and learn what it's like to play in a rhythm section while I accompany them on drum set.  I have my lesson booklet available for purchase in which each student can design their own curriculum to meet their goals.  I also recommend additional books for each student as they develop more specific interests and needs. Piano/keyboard students will learn all scales/ chord progressions, soloing ideas and work out of a fake book. Read More

My teaching methods are relatively universal. With younger students, I focus more on learning to have fun while learning about their instrument at the same time.

Once I know what my student enjoys about music, I tailor my lessons around that. Read More

For beginning students of any age, I always start with learning the correct way to hold a drumstick and how to get the proper sound out of the drums. Once a good fulcrum and technique are established, I'll typically move on to a brief lesson on terminology. The drum set can be a complicated instrument to set up and use and I like to give my students a good foundation in that area. Read More
