Nothing is more rewarding than seeing one of my students develop a passion for music! Therefore, it's important that each student progresses at his or her own pace. I encourage this by setting realistic goals for my students at each lesson. Acknowledging accomplishments helps fuel a students desire to progress, and makes students eager to learn more. By trying to find out what inspires the student, I can successfully tailor my instruction to their wants and needs.Nothing is more rewarding than seeing one of my students develop a passion for music!

Nothing is more rewarding then seeing my student progress and overcome the difficulties of starting to play an instrument. Furthermore, it is very important that each one of my students progresses at their own pace. That being said, I encourage progression by setting realistic goals depending on the student's level. In addition, I create the students curriculum based on the styles of music students prefer as to keep their interest while giving them useful knowledge and techniques for any situation involving playing, improvising, or musical comprehension.

I approach teaching in a way that encourages students to learn at a pace that's comfortable for them. Since the lessons are one -on-one, there is no need to keep up with a herd like you're in school. So I try to give a healthy balance of goals that are attainable only if the student practices and reviewing material from the past to see what has been retained while also showing how certain musical material is not like riding a bike... you will forget without some upkeep.

I'm a singer/songwriter first, and foremost. My passion for music leads to an enthusiasm to teach. I've been in bands since I was in Jr. High. My certification is as an Indie Artist from Musicians Institute in Los Angeles. I specialize in teaching songwriting, and creative playing. I've been playing solo since 2008, and have since started learning drums, bass, as well as the recording process. I know that my lessons will provide value, and hopefully inspiration as well.

If you play more than one instrument, how did you decide to start playing the second? (Or 3rd, 4th, 5th, etc)!
Once you've mastered the basics of music theory and have developed essential performance skills with your primary instrument, it becomes easier to move on to another. Many times, some instruments choose us instead.
If you have a Music Degree, what is it in (Performance, Education, Musicology, Theory, Composition, etc) and why did you choose that degree?
I currently hold a Bachelor of Arts in Music Composition and Sound Design from the University of Colorado, Colorado Springs where I studied under the guidance of Glen Whitehead and Film Composer and Jazz Trumpet player, Sean Schafer Hennessy. I am currently pursuing a Master of Arts in Sound Design for Visual Media at Academy of Art University in San Francisco, CA.
What advice do you have about practicing effectively?
To me, music is a life journey. Like with many other art disciplines, we can't master any skill without practicing. We can only get as much as we put in. The more we practice, the better we get. I strongly believe practicing everyday for 5 - 10 minutes (especially as a beginner student) can go a long ways as opposed to practicing once or twice a week for 30 or 40 minutes. when we do it everyday, the content and exercises are fresh in our mind and are easy to internalize. When practicing a few times a week, it might take some effort to remember the concepts and exercises before warming up. Hope this helps!
How do I know if my child is ready to start lessons?
Once you know your teen shows interest in music, it is a good idea to have an opening conversation to get a better sense of what he or she would like play and accomplish with music. Even if they are interested in learning how to play the guitar, having the chance or flexibility to try out different instruments can make the process of starting out and committing to an instrument much easier. In the case of guitar players, the earliest age I recommend starting out is 9 years old, preferably 12. At that age, a 3/4 size guitar would be more suitable to start out with. I recommend switching to a normal size guitar (acoustic/electric) at or after the age of 15.
Why did you choose your primary instrument?
I chose the guitar as my primary instrument because it just felt right to play. It is a very complete and popular instrument. It can do harmonies, melodies and rhythm, and it's perfect for beginners looking to play a wide range of music styles.
When will I start to see results?
Everyone has a different learning style. My job as a guitar and music instructor is to guide students in discovering themselves through music. From my experience, music theory and playing the guitar can be challenging and don't come naturally to everyone. For this reason, it's important to remain calm, goal oriented, and remember to be kind to yourself during learning challenges. If we are being consistent with our practice, we are bound to see results. The more you put in, the more you get out!
