Instruments: Piano Guitar Voice
I spend a lot of class time teaching students how to practice correctly so that when they are practicing alone they will know what to do to make their time productive. I love seeing the pride and self confidence that a student develops from mastering a particularly difficult exercise. I love being able to encourage them and see them through the tough times and be able to celebrate those victories with them. Read More

I'm a recent Texas transplant and I really excited to begin working! Read More

I believe communication is of the upmost importance. I communicate with parents to let them know how the student is doing, what we are working on, and what to do next. As mentioned above, I tailor to my student's needs based on their understanding and pace. Some students move a little slower than others in certain areas, and some move faster. For example, one student of the same age may understand sheet music quickly, but have a hard time with scales. Read More

My teaching experience dates back to my college days, as I began teaching private lessons part time 8 years ago, and have been consistently teaching students in my home studio for the last 5 years. Encouraging regular practice on a consistent schedule is one of the key points I like to emphasize for younger students, as it tends to help the student progress and gain a passion for the instrument. I've also found that a combination of classical and modern music can go a long way in helping students enjoy the piano and motivate them to practice and continue to learn. Read More

This is where I think it is fun to be creative because we are all different. Everybody has a different method of interpretation and I feel like that is my job to figure out what works for you as an individual. For example I will simply ask you questions like what style of music are you listening to and songs you want to learn how to play. It is also my job to know the difficulty level and how to guide you in the right direction to keep things fun! Read More

If you play more than one instrument, how did you decide to start playing the second? (Or 3rd, 4th, 5th, etc)!
When I was in college, one of my dorm mates played guitar. I borrowed it from him and taught myself how to play pretty quickly. I started playing bass while recording and wanted a specific part. Understanding keyboard and music theory enables me to figure out almost any instrument. I can play cello and double bass, and have even made sense on a saxophone.
Does music run in your family? Tell us a little about your musical family members.
I am the only musician in my large family, for generations. Although both of my sons play but not professionally. Most of my family seem to become doctors. Not something I'd want to do.
When did you decide to become a professional musician? Was it a gradual decision or was there a defining moment for you?
It just kind of happened. A friend and I started playing together when we were about 15. We had a band within a year. One thing led to another and we started becoming popular. It was so much fun. We were offered a recording contract with London Records, (the Rolling Stones label, at the time), but we were all underage, and parents wanted us to go to college, and not be tied up. In retrospect it was probably good that we didn't sign. I've seen many young people, with success in music, have it ruin their lives.
If you have a Music Degree, what is it in (Performance, Education, Musicology, Theory, Composition, etc) and why did you choose that degree?
I did not finish my music degree because I was offered a tour with a rock band and decided to go that route. Honestly, I learned more from doing that tour, than I would have if I'd stayed in school. I have a diploma, from New York University, in computer technology. I realized early on that computers and music were going to be important for each other in the future. I am expert in several computer recording programs, and have taught computer production and recording to several students.
What is your dream piece to perform and why?
I love performing any type of music almost anywhere. The energy one gets from performing in front of people is incredible and addictive. There is no feeling like it that compares to anything else I've ever experienced. I have played all over the world in all different size and type of venue. My dream piece would be to perform one of my original compositions to an audience that pays attention and connects with me through my music.
If you weren't a musician what do you think you'd be doing instead?
I have expertise in technical theater and really enjoy that. I also love to write. I am currently working on an original film script. I also love to cook and think culinary school would be fun. I am a pretty good amateur chef.
What is your favorite style/genre of music to play and why?
I like and play all styles of music, as long as it is good. I am constantly looking for what is new, musically, in the world. I have recently discovered a new band and genre, that I find quite interesting. The Hu Band from Mongolia. They are gaining success in Europe and quite interesting and unique. They are a Metal Band, using traditional, ancient Mongolian instruments and Mongolian throat singing. Worth a listen and look. They're on Youtube.
