Instruments: Trumpet
Although I have not had any official students, I have taught a handful of my fellow peers throughout my years as a trumpet player. I have learned a magnitude of techniques and different approaches from the numerous and excellent trumpet teachers that I have taken lessons from and I hope to relay some of this information to my own students as well as my own ideas and thoughts. The most important thing that I have learned from taking lessons for over 6 years is that in order to be a great teacher you must be a great learner. Read More
Instruments: Guitar Drums Bass Guitar Ukulele Electric Guitar Acoustic Guitar
By trying to find out what inspires the student, I can successfully tailor my instruction to their wants and needs. Nothing is more rewarding than seeing one of my students develop a passion for music! Therefore, its important that each student progresses at his or her own pace. I encourage by setting realistic goals for my students at each lesson. Acknowledging accomplishments helps fuel a students desire to progress, and makes students eager to learn more. Read More
Instruments: Violin
My passion since I was 5 is violin music. I love playing, listening and teaching how to play the violin. I was the first student of Aaron Rosand at The Curtis Institute of Music, and studied the violin with Ivan Galamian at Meadowmount, and Piotr Janowski at the Wisconsin Conservatory of Music, among others. I was a finalist in 3 national violin competitions and winner of 3 Wisconsin state competitions. I have soloed with the Milwaukee Symphony Orchestra, Oshkosh Symphony Orchestra, and Fox Valley Orchestra. Read More
Instruments: Trombone Euphonium Tuba
I start my first lessons by having students play their favorite song. I do this only for students who have played the trombone before. I use this to see what level they are at. For beginners I with the fundamentals and get them playing right away. I have a variety of etudes, exercises, solo pieces and techniques. I teach my students how to perform and to be a professional. I also encourage to students to practice at least 1 hour a day. Read More
Instruments: Violin
Music is one of the things I am very passionate in. Sharing my knowledge on music and on my instruments is one of my primary goals as I believe music is a universal language and can be healing and inspiring. I have been playing in the California State University of Fresno's Symphony Orchestra as a 1st Violin since 2014. I am currently pursing my Masters in Violin Performance and Education. Getting to perform in many places and work with other musicians have been great experiences in my life as a musician. Read More
Instruments: Lute
If you play more than one instrument, how did you decide to start playing the second? (Or 3rd, 4th, 5th, etc)!
The natural love of the Music really compelled me to venture out to New areas. This is how I picked up the handful of Instruments that I try to play well.
What is your dream piece to perform and why?
I'd love to play Marco Dall'aquilla's 54th Ricercar (which I am practicing.) It is written just after the Medieval period, in the Phyrigian Mode - the mode of the soul.
If you weren't a musician what do you think you'd be doing instead?
Working on Instruments, no doubt. It's hard to imagine myself not involved in music at some capacity. Perhaps if I weren't a player, I'd want to make and repair.
Do you use specific teaching methods or books? (Ex: Alfred, Bastion, Suzuki, Hal Leonard) Why did you choose them if you did?
I prefer to create individual lesson plans as students are all different-minded. However, I do enjoy old literature (1550-1770) about technique regarding Fretted Instruments. (Don't worry, you don't have to speak French or Italian - I will translate ?)
What do you think is the hardest thing to master on your instrument?
Many Lutenists and Guitarists would agree that consistency of articulation is their premier nemesis! The ability to play in a way that is accurate and meaningful is always the most important and most difficult aspect of playing.
Have any of your students won awards or been selected for special honors? How have they succeeded?
Indeed, many of my students went on to win competitions such as the Young Talent Award, Classical Guitar Summit Championship and Musician of the Year (Junior College)
What musical accomplishments are you most proud of?
I have been fortunate to tour this beautiful country several times, playing in all states (aside from Alaska & Hawaii.) My accolades and monetary gains are very meaningless in the shadow of all the lovely people and country I encountered during those years.
Why did you choose your primary instrument?
I was very drawn to plucked Instruments my whole life, really. The Lute, my primary Instrument, is basically a time machine or window into another world of absolute grandiose and beauty. I was drawn to it's gentle and bell like quality. It just felt so true and mysterious.
Did you have a teacher that inspired you to go into music? How did they inspire you?
My mentor and dear friend changed my life and view of music. His name is Andreas Martin, and he is the finest musician I know. Although I met him later in my career, it was as if I was renewed musically, setting off on a new journey to Ithaca!
When will I start to see results?
The results, provided the student utilizes the advice and directions given, May be seen nearly immediately. The first two lessons are meant to inspire and offer a clear, fun path to musical success.
How do I know if my child is ready to start lessons?
I like to advocate that when the initial interest and ability to hold the Instrument occurs - it is time. Generally, this is about the age of 7. However, you, the parent, know your child and when they could confidently approach a fun lesson with the ability to retain the information.
What advice do you have about practicing effectively?
Having a structure and interior vision of your goals is really important. Playing music appropriate for your level is key, and moving on when needed is sometimes hard to do. I believe this is where a tutor can be immensely helpful. In that regard, practice should be just that - practicing the necessary techniques, fundamentals and observing the correct hand postures are imperative.
