Instruments: Bass Guitar

I am a fellow Memphian and have been all of my life. I love everything about the music culture here in Memphis. You have gospel, jazz, reggae, blues and other great styles of music here! I graduated from Visible Music College with a bachelors degree music production. All though music engineering is my day job, being a bassist is my full on love. I have had the opportunity to play on a netflix called “Take Me To The River.” I have also had the pleasure of performing at the Lincoln Memorial Center. Read More

Instruments: Flute Piccolo

I started teaching lessons during my final years of my undergraduate degree. Throughout the years, I have maintained a studio in each city. During my master's degree at University of Louisiana, I was a teacher of record for a woodwind technique course, which focused on scales and supplementary lessons to the student's lesson with the flute professor. At the University of Memphis, I taught supplementary lessons as well as music theory courses. Read More

Instruments: Guitar Voice Harmonica

As the son of two teachers, I've seen first-hand how important great teaching can be in a young student's life. My first formal teaching experience came while working at Camp Laney--a summer camp for boys--during college. While there, I had the pleasure of working with students of varying ages and experience levels in guitar, voice, and even songwriting. I've also been a guest lecturer at Lausanne Collegiate School's occasional creative workshops. Read More

I teach my students to be self sufficient and to problem solve by themselves. By doing this it allows the student to make logical decisions and corrections in their own practice so they can establish routines of their own. I want all students to be able to evaluate their own performances so they can use their own individual practice time efficiently. I love seeing students find a musical solution to a problem on their own because it means that I’ve taught them to use their own knowledge for their own good. Read More

I approach teaching in a universal way before specializing on a student's particular interest within music. I try to provide students with a road map so they can determine where they want to go musically. I do this by introducing various styles and techniques that they may not have heard before. Through the years, I've found that this allows students to get out of their comfort zones and learn new rythms they didn't know before. Read More

Instruments: Trombone Ukulele Euphonium Tuba Music

For beginning students, such as children I focus on developing strong fundamentals such as air control, mouthpiece blowing, and hand-eye coordination with their instrument. This slowly moves into rhythm and pitch reading for beginners. Intermediate to advanced students build on these fundamentals and also have the privilege of learning repertoire with performance possibilities. For adults I like to see what suits their personal interests and then work together to achieve their goals through mentorship and collaboration. Read More
