Instruments: Guitar Flute Ukulele Piccolo Electric Guitar
For all of my students, I like to know what styles of music, songs, and artists inspire them! This is a core part of learning how to perform music and will help nourish their desire to learn. I also like to work very individually with each student; not following a set syllabus but rather finding a comfortable pace for the different needs and wants of all my students. This also includes a focus on the body and mind. Read More
Instruments: Piano Guitar Trumpet Drums Bass Guitar Keyboard Electric Guitar Acoustic Guitar
For just about any instrument, a key approach of mine is to teach students how to play the songs they love - and then the musical building blocks that make up said songs. Then, I teach the rudiments, patterns, and music theory behind those building blocks, and teach the students to be able to figure this all out on their own in the future through ear-training. I tend to like the Essential Elements series for band instruments, the Alfred books for piano and guitar, the Real Book for a wide variety of jazz repertoire. Read More

Each and every student will respond differently to instruction, and I am proud to say that I am extremely adaptable. I want to make sure that I am communicating with each individual in a way that they will understand and be successful with, because the student is the most important variable. I use a wide variety of pop culture, classical influence, and I make sure to provide my students with opportunities to challenge themselves and grow in many ways, including encouraging them to participate in live performaces, competitions, and composition.

My teaching style can vary from student to student but I believe the most important element is that the student remains engaged and enjoys practicing their instrument, regardless of their individual level. If they are very young, I try to have them listen to as much music as possible when they are not practicing because listening to new music is just as important to musical growth as practice. If there is a particular song they are aiming to learn, we tackle it in class and have them practice it at home at least half hour a day. Read More

I'm a lifelong musician and grew up playing piano with my grandparents, who are both concert pianists and taught me how to play. I have my A.A. in music from Mt. San Jacinto C.C. and have studied under a number of great professional artists. I have been in a ZZ Top and Led Zeppelin tribute band, as well as a 00's and 10's rock cover band. I've participated in a number of students bands and accompanied violinists and singers during recitals and events. Read More
Instruments: Guitar
I've been teaching guitar since I was in high school. I love the process of helping individuals develop their own musical talent and skill and make the connections that unlock their creativity. Teaching gives me the opportunity to be a part of something bigger than myself; something that can be an enriching and incredibly important part of someone's life. I'm driven by the desire to inspire my students, and in return also be inspired by them. Read More

What advice do you have about practicing effectively?
Perfect practice makes perfect! Even if you are doing something at a slow pace, but doing it perfectly, it is much better than doing it fast and not having correct technique. You will eventually get the speed, but how you are executing the technique is what's important.
I started playing piano when I was 7, and even 15 minutes a day was effective when I first started. If you can practice more, great! But if you can't, just allow yourself 15-20 minutes a day, and you will start to see results. Always practice in a quiet and tranquil space with no distractions around. It should be your safe space that you love to be in!
How do I know if my child is ready to start lessons?
If they start asking about music, responding well to it, and showing and interest in it, they are ready! I remember asking my mother at age 7 if I could take piano lessons, and I'm so fortunate she was willing to let me do that because it started me on a lifelong musical journey.
If they understand an alphabet and basic reading skills, they can definitely learn music notes and a scale. I believe it will only help them in their other subjects they are learning, and will improve their attention span.
When will I start to see results?
Everyone is different, so it's hard to exactly say when you will see results. You might see results immediately, and for others it might take a couple months. Your main goal should be to see a difference in yourself, not to compare to how fast or slow others are learning. Every lesson you will be learning something and will be a mini milestone for you. You should feel proud of the fact you are learning and executing new techniques. Sometimes a goal can just be to have better breath control, and if you are doing that in your scales and exercises, you will see the results!
Did you have a teacher that inspired you to go into music? How did they inspire you?
My elementary school music teacher was also my violin teacher in 3rd grade, and then my chorus teacher in 5th grade. She taught me how to sing and find a love in expressing yourself through music. I felt that she inspired me to never be afraid with music, and it was always my first love. Without her guidance, I don't know if I would've found out that I love singing so much. She was always patient, kind and inspiring. She was always encouraging and always was excited when her students made improvements and showed an interest in music. All she asked was for a smile every day and to put in your best effort which is something that still holds true for me today.
