I love teaching! I've done it for over 25 years now and between it and performing I support myself and my family.  I truly enjoy sharing with others the joy of music.   Wether its an audition for a conservatory, or to become a star, or play some gigs at the local coffee shop, or simply to be able to strum a couple of your favorite songs by the camp fire, I can help.

I have a very energetic and adaptable teaching style. Having worked with students from 3 years old to in their 30's, I can mold lessons to fit any type of attention span. I have also worked with students with special education needs and physical issues, so I can also work with parents to find ways for any student, regardless of their situation, to enjoy a life of music. I will always use positive encouragement, and pressure will never be put on students for results in a certain amount of time. Read More

I move at a very quick pace, but I have my students set their own goals. While I will select the literature for the student, I want them to feel successful when they are working with me. I want students to be confident and successful, so I will do anything in my power to help them learn good technique and practice habits. Teaching students has been a rewarding experience for me, and I believe that I can make a difference in their lives.< When students are practicing, I want them to practice scales for instruments, and vocal warmups for voice before starting on the assigned work for the next lesson.

Instruments: Voice

My teaching style is fun and goal oriented. I like to meet my students where they are and grow from there. I spend a lot of our first sessions asking questions and learning about what makes them excited about music, who they love to listen to, who they love to sing, and go from there. I believe in building a solid technique through both technical and anecdotal examples. I want to make sure I am always focused on what my student wants to get out of our time together. Read More

It is my belief that anybody has the capacity to be successful at anything they want. As a teacher, I believe that it is not only my job to provide that knowledge that I required to be successful, but to also provide the inspiration for the students drive to be successful. Becoming a good musician, as with anything, takes time, and I always work to make sure that the student can see their progress. Read More
