I am a creative teacher that looks and listens to the individual to help them to master the musicianship to play their instrument with the best sound and learn and apply the style of music being studied. From my yoga training I apply ideas of right alignment that help the student to play ergronomically correct. From my Suzuki training, I apply the principles of beautiful sound and learning both by ear and with music. Read More
Instruments: Guitar Violin Viola
My teaching experience began when I was in High School, where I was a mentor to students in their middle school orchestra and a section leader for the violas. Directly after high school, I went to school at BYU-Idaho where I studied for 5 years as a musician and a teacher. I studied with Dr. Kevin Call, a viola student of both Don McInnes and William Primrose himself. I worked closely with Dr. Read More
Instruments: Voice
From way back in high school when I was the lead singer in a vocal group, I've always been singing, and I can say that singing is beautiful when emitted easily and well, fine as wine most anytime: celebrating births or mourning death, mating or contemplating, closing ranks or giving thanks, praising gods or turning clods of sod, selling soap or trying to cope, making magic moments day or night -- be it a keening wail, a chant or croon, a cheery singalong or a lone moan in the darkest hour before dawn.

Instruments: Piano
I've been teaching piano for 13 years, and was trained to do so by a woman who is skilled in the art of pedagogy. That was my first job, and later on I opened my own private studio. At one point I've had up to 45 students, and I've enjoyed working with all of them. I give recitals 4 times a year which helps me see progress in my students. We've tried all kinds of performances, some with themes. The last one I did was a recital with only 70's pop and rock songs. They really enjoyed that one! Read More
Instruments: Piano Synthesizer Keyboard
Seeing my students develop a passion for music is very rewarding! Every student is an individual and moves at their own pace, I work to asses the areas that I feel the student needs to focus on, and keep a positive, encouraging approach to working through the challenges that playing the piano presents. With both younger and adult students, I give feedback on the pieces by writing notes in a notebook, and or the music itself. Read More
Instruments: Flute
I'm looking forward to sharing the love of music with others as I use research-based strategies to motivate students to achieve their best results. I started teaching other flautists in high school, and continued to teach my peers as students in college. I find that helping students figure out effective ways to practice helps speed to process along, help students stay motivated, and achieve the results they want without pressure or anxiety. Read More

Did you have a teacher that inspired you to go into music? How did they inspire you?
my father was my teacher for the most part because we learned how to play guitar together but he already knew the basics like chords and notes.
he inspired me a lot and i can never see myself stop playing guitar.
i love it with all my heart and soul and with his help i have been able to do what i have done.
i do not think i would have stuck it out the 1st month if he didn't make it fun for me and i tank him for that.
i also took lessons from a fellow student in high school i looked up to because he was older and already in an established band.
Why did you choose your primary instrument?
i chose the guitar after watching the Beatles "a hard day night" movie.
I fell in love with the looks of the bass and asked my dad for a guitar on my 12th birthday hoping i would get one like that but instead he busted out an old silvertone guitar his parents ordered out of the sears catalog for him as a kid but he never learn it until we learn together so that was wonderful!
i love playing many instruments but guitar is my main instrument by choice because i have a passion that comes out when i play it and i wouldn't trade that for the world
What musical accomplishments are you most proud of?
My most musical accomplishment of all time would be when my old band opened up for TESTAMENT who was all of our idols and they liked our music so we got to hangout with them afterwards.
I always wanted to make a sound of my own and when i was playing a gig somewhere another musician told me if there was an award for the most unique sound i would have it hands down and i was happy because since i was about 14 or 15 i always wanted to create my own genre of music.
i am also very happy to see my students progress!
Have any of your students won awards or been selected for special honors? How have they succeeded?
My students all win awards by me but only won has went out and won actual awards for playing proficient in his band class!
What do you think is the hardest thing to master on your instrument?
the hardest thing to master on the guitar i think is theory and sweep picking.
Do you use specific teaching methods or books? (Ex: Alfred, Bastion, Suzuki, Hal Leonard) Why did you choose them if you did?
i use a variety of books from Wolf Marshall which is what i started out using to the world wide web
