Instruments: Guitar Cello Electric Guitar Acoustic Guitar
When teaching children, I typically start out with Suzuki cello repertoire. I am also very serious about teaching physical concepts so that the student is able to express themselves through the instrument I believe that there are certain technical principles that must be communicated and I do my absolute best to make sure that the student understands them. As students become more advanced I then introduce repertoire that suits them and that I believe they will enjoy. Read More
Instruments: Piano Guitar Violin Bass Guitar Organ Synthesizer Harmonica Banjo Mandolin
I have studied with several professional, performing musicians, but most of my learning has come from books, magazines and listening. Listening is, quite simply, the best teacher you can have, provided you do it properly. I have played music since age eight, in school bands, jazz bands, blues, and rock bands. I also have written songs since age 10, and recorded numerous cd's of original music in various styles. I am currently the frontman in the Jersey Shore Blues Rock Tribute Band. Read More
Instruments: Piano Guitar Drums Conga Latin Percussion Music Djembe
I have been drumming and performing music for nearly 30 years. I started out playing by ear at 5 years of age and shortly after received professional lessons. I became interested in a diverse variety of musical genres that grew as I did. I was very lucky to have two supportive parents, Bryan and Deborah who noticed my talents and nurtured them at a very young, impressionable age, introducing me to different instruments and live music.

Nothing beats seeing one of my pupils acquire an interest in music! As a result, each student must proceed at their rate. At each lesson, I promote this by setting realistic goals for my pupils, either learning the most challenging parts of a song or just learning a simple phrase that was hard previously. Recognizing accomplishments fuels students' desire to advance and prepares them to learn more. By attempting to discover what motivates the student, I can appropriately personalize my training to their wants and needs. Read More
Instruments: Piano Guitar Trombone
I am a strong advocate in fusing together practice and performance. I personally have had teachers that focused too much on technical studies and theory, and not enough time on incorporating those skills into performance; which is the main reason why many people have a desire to learn a musical instrument. In my lessons, I focus on developing skills that are essential to my student's overall musical development. These skills include music theory, ear training, rhythmic analysis, technique, and finally, applying all those skills into a performing setting. Read More

My recent professional theater credits include: GYPSY (Louise) at The Covedale Center for the Arts (Nomination from The League of Cincinnati Theater for BEST ACTRESS), Title Role in MARY POPPINS at The Renaissance Theater, BRIGADOON (u/s Fiona) and THE DROWSY CHAPERONE at The Wick Theater, and Ensemble roles in SOME PEOPLE HEAR THUNDER (The Capital Repertory Theater) and MAMMA MIA (Theatre Aspen). In New York City, I was recently seen at The New York Theatre Festival in LET THERE BE LIGHT as a principal role and The New York Musical Festival as a featured vocalist. Read More

What advice do you have about practicing effectively?
The more you practice what I have taught you, the better a musician you will be. Practice as much as you can or want to until you get as good as you can or want to be. I can't force you to practice, but I can give you the steps necessary to become as good of a musician as you potentially could be. I will teach you the necessary steps to becoming a fantastic musician, if you decide to practice what I teach you and learn it on your own, you will eventually become a good enough musician to perform and also teach others what you have learned.
How do I know if my child is ready to start lessons?
Does your child want to learn so badly that he or she is begging you to find a way for them to learn their desired instrument? That's when you know they are fully ready. If your child says they want to learn how to play music, like playing piano for example, then it is your turn to make that happen. Once you make that happen, I will continue to make it happen. They won't be able to learn what they want without a teacher to guide them. I would gladly be that teacher and I am willing to help anyone at any age.
When will I start to see results?
You will see results as soon as you meet me. We will go over exactly what you want to go over and I will make it as fun as possible. You will be able to learn at your own pace and I will be able to teach you the methods that I came up with to get myself where I am today. You will see the best results when you take what I have taught you and then learned from it and practiced it so that you can remember what I taught you so that we can move on to improving your skills as a musician. You are the one that is in control of making yourself receive positive results.
Did you have a teacher that inspired you to go into music? How did they inspire you?
I didn't really have any teacher. I was born to play music and I made that happen on my own. I have an uncle that taught me a few chords on the guitar when I was six years old. A few months later after I learned some chords, I started teaching him some stuff that I improvised on. He would show me a Beatles song, I would correct him and tell him that the chord he showed me is actually a little more complicated than what is on the record. My perfect pitch helped me to learn every instrument and I used that to teach myself what I hear in other songs.
