Instruments: Piano Voice Saxophone Drums

My experience as a private instructor began as early as when I was a student in college studying music. I have always had a profound passion for teaching at the private level because it really gives me the opportunity to help an individual in a more focused and meticulous manner.

While my life took some time away from music, I still held a strong belief that music is at the very essence of human expression and can hold academic as well as therapeutic affects for students young and old.

The voice is the center of human expression, and I believe that everyone should have the opportunity to unlock this uniquely human ability to communicate thoughts, emotions, and beliefs. Read More
