Instruments: Trumpet
I received my bachelors of music education from the University of Northern Colorado in 1980. I believe the study of music improves a person even if they don't go into music as a career. The believe the study of music will help people to learn about themselves, learn how to study and how work with others. It increase left brain, right brain functions and teaches someone to improve their life. The appreciation of music helps you to be more aware in other areas of your life. Read More

I started teaching professionally in Sarasota, FL with a private music school in 1999. I have taught private lessons both at the studio and in students' homes. I also taught group lessons through the Police Athletic League and a local middle school. I love sharing my library of music with my students, and I encourage my students to listen to a variety of music to expand their musical knowledge and to practice, practice, practice! Read More

I practice various teacher's techniques for better understanding the material by the student. Great part of my lessons is having fun playing, singing and understanding the music. We practice different activities (playing together, practicing beats, singing, learning the keys, looking for similarities, engaging another arts, dancing, etc.).We do many interesting and interacive exercies and activities. We work on the sense of beat, better listening and understanding of music intonations. Read More

Instruments: Piano Violin
I love hearing a student improve in their music. I love not only hearing them play but seeing them grow as a person. Music is an incredible powerful gift that can be used in so many different ways. I believe in learning a musical instrument students can be benefited as a person by learning self discipline/patience/perseverance. It's a great way to set goals and see goals met. There is no way for learning an instrument to be a quick process but little by little it can progress to a great accomplishment. Read More

If you play more than one instrument, how did you decide to start playing the second? (Or 3rd, 4th, 5th, etc)!
Take what i know from all the instruments i know at that time and tie that to the new instrument I'm trying to learn. From there you play to what the instrument is meant for and what purpose it serves in certain genres of music.
What is your dream piece to perform and why?
Perfect Pillow by the band Chon. It's extremely difficult peice and uses all the guitar techniques that i love in Prog music. It's such a beautiful piece.
If you weren't a musician what do you think you'd be doing instead?
I have no clue. Maybe something with Film?
What is your favorite style/genre of music to play and why?
Every genre and style of music has something i can appreciate and take from. Its too hard to find a favorite. However prog and jazz and high up on the list.
Do you use specific teaching methods or books? (Ex: Alfred, Bastion, Suzuki, Hal Leonard) Why did you choose them if you did?
The only guarentreed book i use with my students is the Guitar Grimoire series of books. I choose these because there is a book on every topic a guitar player needs to learn to become a successful guitar player. From scales to chord to improvisation. They have it all. Every book is dense with information. Like an encyclopedia for guitar.
The only other books i use are books that i have personal experience with. I typically use these books when a student has a specific need or request that the Guitar Grimoire series can not help.
What do you think is the hardest thing to master on your instrument?
The hardest thing to master on the guitar is mastering how to play the guitar.
Why did you choose your primary instrument?
The people who play the guitar and the music they made always looked and sounded so cool.
What musical accomplishments are you most proud of?
Not giving up half way through a difficult piece in front of an audience of people.
Did you have a teacher that inspired you to go into music? How did they inspire you?
Every single musician i have seen or talked to on earth has inspired my musicality and life as a musician in some way. Good or bad, teacher or student, you can always learn to be inspired by somebody.
When will I start to see results?
If you pay close attention to your playing and progress you will see results with in the first 10 minutes of playing an instrument. Small or big.
How do I know if my child is ready to start lessons?
If they are willing to learn and practice what they learn then they are ready for lessons. Almost any age is the right age for anybody to learn an instrument but over the years I have noticed that around the age of 6-8 is the best time to get a child into lessons. This is where I see that they learn to have the most fun with the instrument and tend to be the most interested. Not to say that this does not exist younger or older the 6-8.
What advice do you have about practicing effectively?
Pick the things that you struggle with and make a "plan of attack" on how you will practice them. For instance, If you are struggling with chord changes, soloing, and arpeggios then you should make a practice schedule that encompasses about one hour every 2 to 3 days. Spend about 10 minutes on chord changes you would like to know like a 2-5-1. Then take that chord progression and try to solo over it for 15 minutes to improve your understanding of soloing and the chord changes. Then spend the remainder of the time trying to insert arpeggios into your solos. This was you are practicing all the elements you are struggling with while combining your understanding of them individually into one practice session.
When did you decide to become a professional musician? Was it a gradual decision or was there a defining moment for you?
When everyone in my life started to tell me i would be an idiot if i didn't do something with my talents in music. They were right!
