I am a composer/guitarist from Greeley with a passion for teaching any who would like to learn more about music. Ive had the opportunity to perform in from of multiple different audiences, from a performance of my symphonic writing to playing in guitar quartets and different bands. In 2019, I graduated with a degree in Musical Composition, so I have an extensive background in music theory and how to apply it to playing an instrument. Read More

Instruments: Accordion

When teaching intermediate students, I like to start them on right hand chord exercises and demonstrate how diminished sevenths and sixths can interplay with the bass left hand. An understanding of the right hand chord structures adds flavor to the left hand bass. It's amazing when the student plays songs that were one finger exercises and advances to the more complex chord structures. I find that most intermediate students never really learn how their classical songs are structured for the bass until they play right hand chords, especially full octave. Read More

I began teaching music while in college after a peer approached me looking for voice lessons in order to improve her ear training skills. I immediately enjoyed facilitating and witnessing the progress of my student and decided to take on additional students. When I moved to Colorado, I was making music more and more and missed teaching. That's when I was given the opportunity to teach a 2-month course in music production to students with very limited music experience. Read More

I believe in Keeping it Fun! We get to play. Playing is a big part of the creative process, in that it involves experimenting and finding new ideas, thoughts, and processes that work best for each individual and that will lead to the perfect practice and the excitement of performance. When a student is ready, I will encourage them to do some suggested performing opportunities. Nothing is more thrilling to me and sometimes emotional, than to see one of my students progress to the point of loving music as much as I do, and to go on and spread the good to all those who will listen.

It is one of my teaching philosophies that it is better to practice a few times a day than once a day because it re-familiarizes all the work and information obtained in lessons.It is one of my greatest passions to share my knowledge and help others play the guitar with confidence and joy. A little practice each day can result in great rewards musically for the musician(s) and the audience! Read More
