My lessons are student driven and customized to each student. I take a student's musical background and goals into consideration when coming up with the lesson plan for each lesson. I aspire to find a balance between challenging my students without frustrating or overwhelming them and giving them reasonably reached goals with them getting bored. I make sure to acknowledge their success and offer positive feedback when they do well. Read More

Goals are incredibly important to keep focused. Whether someone is preparing for a NYSSMA exam, an audition of any sort, a performance, or a competition, having a clear understanding of how long something will take to learn and how long you have is crucial! I am an advocate of teaching a student as early as possible how to practice to be successful. I like to use a method book as well as a book of short pieces to get a student started. Read More

When did you decide to become a professional musician? Was it a gradual decision or was there a defining moment for you?
Music for me has become a journey towards finding my true voice. I began playing flute as a young child by mandate of my parents, and was pretty much forced by my parents to practice every day... it took many years before I began to truly understand what a difference this musical skill could have in my life and to others.
I have an aunt who is a professional opera singer, and when I was a young adult in my 20s I decided to take voice lessons from her... hence the journey towards finding my true voice! I worked with her for several years to get in touch with the musical voice that had always been hiding inside me, and learned to listen to that. I began to develop a deep love of performing, a passion of my own, that nobody was instructing me to have! but I struggled with severe stage fright, so I mostly kept myself away from any stage for many years.
Years later I found a flute choir to join, where our performances were "safely limited" to churches and elder-care homes. With practice, many performances, and some unexpected networking I discovered some local "pro-jams" where I made my rock-alternative-jazz debut, called on stage by a good friend and fellow musician. The first time I performed on stage, in that loud, crowded club, I felt the nerves take over as the spotlights hit my face and my hands and breath shook. I was certain I'd played terribly and would be forever shunned by the rock performing community, but it turns out nobody noticed my nerves - only the fact that I got up on stage and played that flute. This transformative moment for me led to many energetic performances, increasing in confidence each time.
As an adult I've enjoyed performing in several ensembles including 8 years in a flute choir and various professional "jam sessions." I love performing, whether it be highly rehearsed and technical or improvisation. In my years of flute playing I've had the privilege of performing with local contemporary rock groups such as The Straightjackets and Father Jones Band, funk bands Soul Circus/The Insecurity Guards, and the incredible honor of sharing a stage with the internationally renowned, Grammy winning singer/songwriter Jeffrey Gaines.
How do I know if my child is ready to start lessons?
Most flute instructors ask that a student be at least 10 years old to begin flute lessons, and this is primarily due to the size and shape of the instrument - specifically, a student's arms need to be long enough so that their fingers can comfortably cover each of the keys with their mouth is resting on the mouth piece. It's important to develop good posture-habits early on, so even if you believe your child is ready to begin flute lessons, it's a good idea to have a professional flute instructor meet with your child and a beginner flute to have a complimentary evaluation.
