I love discovering music and sharing my joy of music to others, finding inventive ways to motivate and inspire other people to create!

One of my main methods which I find makes the whole process a lot more fun and enjoyable for the student is breaking down a song into easy to learn segments, then helping them piece the whole thing together whilst teaching them any relevant theory at the same time, so a student can see how that piece of music theory is implemented into something "musical" rather than just a scale played note for note for instance.

For classical and opera singing, I teach a healthy Bel Canto technique rooted in the Italian school of singing. I am also skilled in teaching SOVT style, but I typically avoid it with beginning singers. For musical theater and pop, I teach healthy belting techniques that preserve vocal quality and focus on a connection to the chest and body, alleviating vocal tension. For my guitar students, I teach fingering techniques and basic chords first, and then I focus on giving each student a basic repertoire--several pieces they already know and like to showcase their abilities and track progress.

Since an early age I have had mentors and teachers show me by example how important music education is to preserving culture. I have been teaching for five years, first teaching middle school students at music summer camps in New Orleans like the New Jazz School. After graduating from Loyola University I opened a guitar studio, teaching all ages and talent levels. I also taught guitar and piano lessons to students (5-50) at the New Orleans Music Academy.

Every person is different as every student is different, so I make a point to cater to the individual and not get locked into an umbrella method of teaching. I make myself available to each student to ask questions and get the most information out of whatever subject we might be discussing/learning. I make sure that each students needs get met by determining on day 1 of lessons what they want to get out of music and the instrument they are learning. Read More

As a teacher I can help you grow your abilities on your instrument. Help you achieve the cool warm sound you want from the saxophone. Help you get the dexterity on the instrument you need. And get a more broad understanding of how music is played and created. Throughout my career since I was 16 years old I have taught children, teenagers and adults from beginners to advanced levels. I hold a Masters degree in jazz, composition and teaching from The Rhytmic Music Conservatory in Copenhagen and have also taught several courses there and at other distinguished music conservatories.
