I am a classical trained musician. I was brought up in Bloomington Indiana, the home of the no.1 rated music school in the States (by the teacher's association).

His playing style is comfortable, clean, natural, and free of tension problems. Read More

My teaching methods depend on the student's age, experience and skill level. I do my best to try to keep it interesting.

Knowing scales and chords is a must for clear understanding of how harmony works. Read More

I always push students so they can reach their goals on the instrument. I will always give homework that will push them, but I make sure that I set a pace that they can handle. Read More
