Instruments: Flute Piccolo
It is my goal to customize the lesson experience for every student that I teach. Most beginners benefit from a method book, such as Hal Leonard's Essential Elements, which is a good starting place for most students. As students progress on their instrument, I choose the method books and solos that will best help them develop their talents as well as keep them engaged in the material. During my years on the flute, I have used a wide variety of methods that I have found successful for different techniques, so I can effectively select what material will help each student become successful.

I then attended Housatonic College where the Costanzo brothers, Sonny and Sam, headed the music department. Sonny is a renowned trombonist in the New York City area who has played over the years with Clark Terry’s big band and now leads his own. One of the highlights into my ventures with jazz was to study under John Mehegan, noted scholar, author and educator. John set into motion the study of jazz theory and improvisation with his four book series on the subject, which is still highly recognized today. Read More
Instruments: Piano Keyboard
I am a motivated piano instructor. I enjoy teaching as well as learning what genre my student likes to play. I have been playing as a church musician since the age of 16. I had the opportunity to play for the adult and youth choirs. I am versatile in different genres however, I specialize in gospel music. My method of teaching is to learn scales in every key, as well as teaching the student to read music as well as ear training. Read More
Instruments: Piano Trumpet Trombone Euphonium Tuba
I believe that music should be a satisfying endeavor. Learning music should be a great balance of having fun in the moment, and the joy of seeing oneself grow and progress as an artist over time. I meet each and every student at their own level, wherever that may be, and help them grow. I like to talk to each student or parent about their goals in music with the understanding that many have very different goals. Read More
Instruments: Piano Voice
I am a very committed Vocal Performance and Piano Technique teacher. I graduated from the South Carolina Governors School for the Arts and Humanities in 2005, and have sent two students there myself since then. I received my Bachelors Degree in Vocal Performance from the College of Charleston in 2009 and then my Masters Degree in Choral Conducting in 2013 respectively. I moved to the Charlotte area where I am the Staff Soprano at St. Read More

When did you decide to become a professional musician? Was it a gradual decision or was there a defining moment for you?
I was 14 years of age when I made my first monies playing Music. It was at that time that I knew it was something I could do successfully
Does music run in your family? Tell us a little about your musical family members.
YES. It is my older siblings and relatives who garnered a lot of notoriety in the Field.
If you play more than one instrument, how did you decide to start playing the second? (Or 3rd, 4th, 5th, etc)!
As a Woodwind Instrument Player, it came quite naturally to delve into the other woods as a double and also to ensure gainful employment as an Instrumentalist capable of playing more than one instrument in the Woodwind Family.
What is your favorite style/genre of music to play and why?
BeBop is my favorite style. My earliest recollection of Music falls in that genre.
If you weren't a musician what do you think you'd be doing instead?
I would be in a Mental Health or a Therapy Career had I not chose to study Music.
What do you think is the hardest thing to master on your instrument?
I've spent a lot of time learning to approach my primary instrument from various approaches genre-wise; that is to say playing various styles of Music effectively.
Do you use specific teaching methods or books? (Ex: Alfred, Bastion, Suzuki, Hal Leonard) Why did you choose them if you did?
Yes, I will use whatever is appropriate. I don't teach by rote only. Most of my lessons come from a Methodology Approach, or two.
What does a normal practice session look like for you?
After the warm-up, I will review material covered before beginning to focus on issues that present as difficult.
If you have a Music Degree, what is it in (Performance, Education, Musicology, Theory, Composition, etc) and why did you choose that degree?
Both Degrees are in Music Education. I choose Education to ensure proficiency in Teaching.
What is your dream piece to perform and why?
I play Jazz, Rhythm and Blues, and Popular Music. I have no particular piece in any of these genres that is a preference.
Why did you choose your primary instrument?
I always wanted my first instrument; it seems even before I started Music lessons. Maybe it was because of something I saw, or something I heard. I was very young. But when asked what instrument I wanted to play, I got it.
When will I start to see results?
You will see results immediately in how the instrument is approached, the care and maintenance of it, as well an appreciation for it, the enthusiasm of the child.
What musical accomplishments are you most proud of?
My Education is what I'm most proud of. My ability to pick up concepts quickly has taken me a long way also.
Have any of your students won awards or been selected for special honors? How have they succeeded?
I am uncertsin as to the accomplishments of my students due to the fact that I have relocated and lost contact with them.
Did you have a teacher that inspired you to go into music? How did they inspire you?
My first teacher was my Sister. She inspired me greatly and lead by example. After her, my HS Music Teacher became a mentoring friend
How do I know if my child is ready to start lessons?
If the child has a propensity for Music in any way, lessons can commence.
Observe the child’s keen interest.
What advice do you have about practicing effectively?
Practice at a slow tempo. Slow enough to maintain a steady flow to the piece. Once you are familiar with the notes, you can speed up to the necessary beats per minute. Practice everyday if not but for 10-15mins
