Instruments: Piano Saxophone Flute Piccolo Keyboard
My methods of teaching are teaching what and how to practice. The basic ingredients in music are scales and chords and space. I am a firm believer of playing with a rhythm section from the beginning. Because of this, I use devices such as playing with tracks, myself, and other people. I provide audio and visual examples using recordings and videos. It is a myth that, with music, you either have it or you don't. Read More
Instruments: Piano Saxophone Flute Clarinet
I teach music, not just instruments. I try to develop a broad appreciation for music that will stay with my students wherever they go in life. I take an individualized approach based on learning styles and strengths. I believe in positive reinforcement, especially with younger students! I also take into account preferences for music styles and attempt to use repertoire that not only broadens their experience, but keeps students focused and interested. Read More

For example, Monterey International Jazz Festival in US, Jazz Od Nowa in Poland, Philharmonic Of Paris, France the Chicago Symphony for just mention a few. Read More
Instruments: Flute Piccolo
As a flute player, where would we be without the teachings of Trevor Wye, Marcel Moyse, Paul Taffanel and Philippe Gaubert? Of course, I will start by determining where they are at, a test, so to say. For the beginners, I like to start with the Trevor Wye beginners books. As they grow more advanced, we will look at separate books such as the 24 melodic studies by Moyse and intermediate books that are also by Wye. Read More
Instruments: Flute Piccolo
I typically begin my young students in the Suzuki Method for Flute, inwhich I have received the training for this method. For older students, I begin them in the Trvor Wye Method for Beginning Flute Students. I supplement both these methods with solos appropriate for their level and goals, such as UIL and other competitions. I always allow time for something fun and modern as part of the weekly practicing. Read More
Instruments: Piano Saxophone Flute Music Keyboard
Hello, I am a saxophonist, composer, educator and multi-instrumentalist. I began playing the saxophone at age 12 and from the moment I first touched the horn, I was hooked. After becoming more familiar with the jazz language, I quickly became further immersed in the jazz scene back home in Dallas. During high school I performed in many jazz festivals, competitions and local bands that furthered my artistry and understanding of the music I am playing. Read More
Instruments: Flute Piccolo
What is your favorite style/genre of music to play and why?
That's a hard question because I have several but my top 3 are orchestral music, experimental chamber music, and solo music. Each of them present a different side of flute playing but are equally fascinating to me due to the depth of expression that lives within the music.
What does a normal practice session look like for you?
A solid warm up session that includes tone/sound exercises, scales played at different speeds and articulations and an etude. Then practice excerpts, solo repertoire and then a bit of sight reading.
Does music run in your family? Tell us a little about your musical family members.
Yes, my dad is a professional performer and teacher who specializes in trombone. My grandmother was a pianist and music educator.
When did you decide to become a professional musician? Was it a gradual decision or was there a defining moment for you?
When I heard Claudio Abbado conduct Martha Argerich at the Lucern Music Festival. It was surreal!
If you play more than one instrument, how did you decide to start playing the second? (Or 3rd, 4th, 5th, etc)!
Piccolo tends to be a secondary instrument that is essential to the flute section and that, when performed well, it adds incredible strength and color to the flute section, woodwind section, and entire orchestra.
If you weren't a musician what do you think you'd be doing instead?
I would be a Graphic Designer and work in Marketing
If you have a Music Degree, what is it in (Performance, Education, Musicology, Theory, Composition, etc) and why did you choose that degree?
I have a Masters in Flute Performance. I chose this degree because I am passionate about flute playing and wanted to play a wider variety of music as well as learn more about how the instrument worked. In fact, my degree enabled me to branch out into contemporary avant-garde music which I really like!
What do you think is the hardest thing to master on your instrument?
Tonal colors and shadings within the big array of musical repertoire.
Why did you choose your primary instrument?
Because it was the only instrument available at the time. In later years, I continued to study it because I loved how beautiful it sounded as well as the challenge it presented when playing major orchestral solos.
What musical accomplishments are you most proud of?
Having won the concerto competition at University of New Mexico as well as seeing my students succeed and grow.
Have any of your students won awards or been selected for special honors? How have they succeeded?
Yes, they have won Superior ratings in the All-State Solo and Ensemble Competitions as well as been selected as members of the All-State Band.
How do I know if my child is ready to start lessons?
By attending a trial lesson and then talking with the instructor about your child's abilities and interest
When will I start to see results?
Results are sown, first, in the way you approach and think about music and then in the way you perform it. Your dedication to individual practicing plus attention to details will determine your growth and maturity. The more you nurture your concept of music, the better the results in your instrumental performance.
What advice do you have about practicing effectively?
Have a specific goal in mind for each area of study: sound, technique, musicianship, and repertoire
