My teaching experience dates back to my time in college as I spent many hours working with high-school marching bands and giving individual lessons on drum set and battery percussion. Once I moved to Los Angeles, the focus of my teaching switched to private lessons in students homes and rented studio spaces. After graduating from the Los Angeles College of Music, I was asked back as a substitute to teach their sight reading classes, to assist in styles classes such as Rock and Jazz, and as an assistant running the console in their "Recording for Musicians" class.

A student will never practice if they're not having fun, and they won't have fun if they're being pushed harder than they want to be pushed.

We continue on the student's pace, and find the most efficient and fun way to get the student's goals. Read More
