My style is relaxed, making sure not to cause any stress from overpracticing or the worst--teaching in an intimidating tone.

My guitar, bass guitar, mandolin, and drum students will start in the Hal Leonard's books as well if they are unsure of a specific genre or style they wish to play.

I began my musical journey in middle school where I found a passion for percussion! I practiced and practiced and tried to be in as many emsembles as I could.

During middle school I competed in Solo and Ensemble and All-County and All-State. Read More

My curriculum is created to fit your need. As I teach "music" and the instrument, I can provide printed material that will help you in your goal.
