Instruments: Piano Guitar Synthesizer Music Keyboard
As a composer and performer myself, I understand the benefits of consistent and productive regular practice. I have studied the classical canon, contemporary classical music, jazz, and popular styles, and performed them all in halls and clubs throughout the Northeast and the world. I have found the best way to motivate students is to partner with them to define their individual goals for each lesson. When they are excited to be working toward a goal that is meaningful for them, they will rapidly make progress! Read More

I've been playing guitar for 15 years and I always strive to learn something new everyday. I started out taking private lessons and was instantly hooked. I enjoy sharing my knowledge of music with others and exposing students to new techniques and musical concepts.Every individual has his or her own goals that they want to accomplish on the guitar. Some want to learn it all (technique, music theory, etc.) while others would be happy if they could simply learn to play one of their favorite songs. Read More

I graduated from SUNY Purchase where I received my Bachelor's in Music Composition.

Nothing makes me happier than having the opportunity to share my love of music and guitar. Upon graduating from Skidmore College in 2000, I was accepted to Florida State University to the classical guitar program under the study of Bruce Holzman. I feel my decision to simultaneously work towards two masters degrees speaks clearly for my motivation and passion towards music. While I focused on music theory/composition for my PhD studies at Louisiana State University, I continued performing newly composed works by graduate composers for the instrument. Read More

In high school I played in the New Jersey Youth Symphony Jazz Orchestra, my high school big band, various gigs as a lounge musician, as well as numerous rock groups with my friends and classmates. I've taken lessons with greats like Vic Juris and played alongside Paul Shaffer. I have also given lessons as a guitar instructor myself for students of all ages, and like to bring my own youth and excitement into my style of teaching. Read More

Why did you choose your primary instrument?
I choose my primary instrument by chance. A friend asked if I would play bass in his band, and i said yes. He had an old bass laying around and I learned how to play by watching and listening to him. I fell in love with music and playing and finally took lessons. Playing the bass became my life. It has changed the way I think about everyday things in life. I hone in on small details and think about decisions I make all because I picked up my friends old bass. I do not know where I would be without it.
What musical accomplishments are you most proud of?
I am proud of many musical accomplishments. When I first started playing I was asked to play gigs on Cape Cod, where I am originally from. I was paid very well and made connections that I hostel have til this day. Going to school for music is one of the biggest accomplishments. Going to school really helped me get organized with my music and life. I have managed bands and played in them. I have played really great venues in NYC, venues you hear your favorite bands have played. I have played with grammy award winning musicians, and have met countless friends through music.
Have any of your students won awards or been selected for special honors? How have they succeeded?
I have had private students go on to high school bands and have been accepted to college because they have played music. I have students who were very grateful just to have played in my school band. Success, for them, is something I would hear when they said thank you to me for staying after school to help them learn a piece of music or a scale. I have given awards to my students because they have gone above and beyond what was asked of them. Some students have started their own bands in hopes of playing in NYC.
What do you think is the hardest thing to master on your instrument?
The hardest thing to master on your instrument is being as good as you want to be. Playing an instrument takes constant practice. You cannot stop just because you have reached your goal. You have to sustain your goal by practicing and learning more. Music is infinite in that way. I would say technique is very hard to master since there are many techniques to choose from, but learning when not to play is the even harder. Knowing when not to play makes or breaks a musician. Great musicians know when to lay out and when to play technical.
