Instruments:
I began teaching piano in high school and continued into my college years. I then spent the next decade touring in bands and recording in some of the top studios in Los Angeles. I have worked with some of the best in the business including Rick Rubin, John Shanks, and Jason Falkner, just to name a few. These experiences have given me the knowledge of being a musician in the real world, which I try and impart to my students.
Instruments:
I trained classically for almost six years, and then branced out to old-time, celtic, and bluegrass fiddling. I performed in, and won, several fiddle contests throughout high school, but then discovered jazz and improvisation, and found my true calling. I have performed with a wide variety of groups, from traditional bluegrass to country-punk, from folky singer-songwriters to a hip-hop group, and love nothing more then creativly interacting with others, adding my own voice to whatever else is going on. Musically speaking, I don't believe in boundaries - I don't think musicians need to be categorized or put into little boxes that tells them what they can and can't do. I think people should be allowed to explore whatever voices they find true and beautiful - and feel free to add their own voice. I believe we should learn from anything and everything, because music provided a window into another human's soul - and I believe each soul has value. I don't exalt Bach, Beethoven, and Brahms above anyone else, but I prefer to learn the music of the outsider and the marginalized.
Instruments:
I began teaching quite early in my own guitar playing experience. Once I had the basics down, my friends would ask me to come to their house to show them how to play a few chords. It wasn't until close to 5 years ago when those friends kindly asked me to start teaching their children. It was then when I realized how much I loved teaching, so much in fact that I resigned from a cushy 9-5 office job to pursue teaching full time. I was recently employed at the Neighborhood Rock School in Burbank as a guitar and band coach for ages 8 to 99. I've now branched out on my own as I find it more convenient to travel to student's homes.
Instruments:
My goal as a teacher is for each student to feel at home with their music. Some students will want to make music their career - great! Some just want an hour to themselves once a week to nurture their creative spirit - fantastic! If there's a song you've always wanted to learn - bring it in, even if it's beyond your current skill level. I'll tailor your lessons to help you meet your goals. Whether you are a youngster just starting out, or a soccer mom getting back into music, I'll meet you where you are and we can begin the journey together.
Instruments:
I truly enjoy my students as individuals. Each person brings their own, unique gifts to singing and is overcoming their own challenges. I love mapping out a path where we can journey together and find our way to happier, healthier singing. Nothing is more rewarding! I am an easygoing and encouraging teacher who is always welcoming to my students. Every lesson will be filled with victories that will spur you on to the next goal. Acquiring proper technique takes time but that doesn't mean you won't see results along the way. The process can be absolutely amazing!
