Instruments: Piano Guitar Saxophone Drums Organ Synthesizer Music Keyboard Electric Guitar Acoustic Guitar
I have been teaching on and off since 2010 and now teach almost exclusively from my home studio in Bloomington, IN. I've had the experience of teaching everyone from 4 year olds to advanced adult students and implemented various teaching methods for the many different minds learning styles. I always liked to look at the art of music like learning a language so I have since learned to create individualized lesson plans for my students that gives students plenty time to "speak", that is learning the fundamentals, phrases, and tools to share their personal story and to study the vast pedigree of music that has come before them.

I am a highly motivated piano teacher who loves working with students of all ages and sharing my love of music.

I began giving guitar lessons around the age of 15. I was eventually hired as an instructor at GuitarWorks in Greenwood, Indiana where my teaching experience blossomed. I was able to work with five year olds to fifty year olds of all skill levels and musical interests. This greatly broadened my approach for each individual student to tailor my lessons according to their interests and goals. As I know from my own experience, an instructor can most certainly become a great influence and role model to their students. Read More
Instruments: Piano Guitar Voice Drums Bass Guitar
Upon a student's evaluation every lesson with any student should form it's own branch or life of it's own. Music is a passionate expression. I help students understand their instruments. Self expression, individualism, and self composition are traits I sought as a student and musician. My joy as a teacher, instructor and mentor is seeing the excitement someone achieves when they finally feel the "got it" or are starting to connect the dots. Read More

Instruments: Piano Saxophone Clarinet
Every lesson I give is different, depending on how the student learns and how they’re motivated. My teaching style is energetic and positive, yet with realistically high standards. I truthfully love giving lessons, and students sense this. Positive feedback is always given before negative. I help students set specific, attainable goals so they can progress at their own pace. Also, I find out what other interests/hobbies the student has so I can make interdisciplinary musical connections. Read More

Why did you choose your primary instrument?
When I was growing up mostly of what was on the radio was what would be classified as Pop Country and and Classic Rock. Pop Country never spoke to me because I had a difficult time liking the vocal twang. Classic Rock, however, always seemed to have these sweet riffs. Things that your ears would really gravitate toward and were memorable. It just seemed like it would so much fun to be able to do. On top of that the tone was so varied. You could listen to a song that had a somber and sweet guitar part, or one that was truly gritty and brutal. So the sound was extremely important for me.
What musical accomplishments are you most proud of?
I'm really proud to have had the opportunity to acquire the Classical Guitar Graduate Assistantship at Ball State University. I truly learned a lot about how to teach from that opportunity. Likewise, I'm proud of having spent some time in Chicago teaching for Merit School of Music and Sherwood Community Music School. With every new student I had the opportunity to teach I had a new opportunity to learn and improve my approach to each students needs and the way I explain topics. I'm truly grateful for every student I've taught.
Have any of your students won awards or been selected for special honors? How have they succeeded?
I have not had any students that have been awarded special honors or awards. While I have had students that have the potential to achieve those things, I simply haven't been in one place long enough to see them reach that point. Learning an instrument takes time. Additionally, if your goal is only to improve for yourself or just learn a few songs you really enjoy then reaching that level isn't unnecessary. Only a handful of students I've had have wanted to achieve that level of playing. And for them I am certain they will reach that goal.
What do you think is the hardest thing to master on your instrument?
I think the hardest thing to master for most people is patience. Even with physical or cognitive hurdles, knowing that you need to patient and not rush the progress is crucial to improvement. If you can stop and recognize that you're just stumbling through a few measures and can work on just that then you're in a much better place than most people who are picking up an instrument. So many people get frustrated because they can't get something and think that playing it quickly will get them to where they want to go. Just remember that patience is key.
