Instruments: Drums
I studied music in middle school and high school through wind ensemble, jazz band, marching band, show choir, and private lessons. During this time I also attended music camps at McNally Smith and Berklee College of Music. I then moved to Nashville and graduated from Belmont University's School of Music. In Nashville, I have played with many independent artists across multiple genres as well as toured with bands across the country. Read More
Instruments: Piano Voice Trumpet
I have over 6 years of experience of private music lessons and have taught children anywhere from 4- 17. At age 15, I started my own freelancing private piano teacher business. It started small and locally, but I fell in love with teaching others and inspiring others with my passion of music. Ever since graduating Berklee College of Music in 2022, I knew teaching is what I know and love. I love watching a student develop a passion for music. Read More

Instruments: Voice
It personally took me more than a minute for my aha! moments. Every student is different and should be taught in the most positive ways. Theres no reason a student should feel rushed or down. We take singing lessons to learn ourselves and have fun mainly! Im a very visual learner so I tend to teach using some wild visual tactics. I want to develop confidence in ourselves and a comfortability that makes us eventually not afraid to be goofy on stage or even by ourselves! Read More
Instruments: Guitar Electric Guitar Acoustic Guitar
My career as a teacher began 14 years ago, at the age of 14, giving guitar lessons to my friends and classmates around town. Since then I have continued to teach guitar, music theory, and ear-training to beginning and intermediate musicians of all ages and backgrounds. Emphasizing the direct correlation between consistent practice and gradual, sustained improvement is an integral part of my personal teaching method; one of the most rewarding moments of teaching and learning music, for both student and teacher, is when a student sees and internalizes the progress they've made as a result of the work they've put in.

Instruments: Piano Guitar Voice Ukulele
For nearly ten years, I have been teaching private music lessons. However, throughout my experiences as a student and a performer, my teaching continues to grow and develop both in and out of the music classroom. With a diverse music education background including music directing musicals, vocal coaching, performing with vocal jazz ensembles, directing choirs, and performing in operas, I strive to share my musical diversity with my students. I also have a strong passion for world music in which I am constantly researching and discovering. Read More
Instruments: Guitar Bass Guitar Electric Guitar Classical Guitar Acoustic Guitar
Why did you choose your primary instrument?
I, like many other kids my age dreamed of being a rockstar but something more than the looks and swagger of the guitar drew me to it. It is a very personal instrument. I loved the idea that I could take it anywhere with me, unlike a giant piano! I could play it soft or I could wail away on it as loud as I wanted. It is an instrument that can accompany others or shine on its own and is quite limitless. But, back to the rockstar ideal, all of my favorite musicians were guitar players. From Stevie Ray Vaughn and Buddy Guy to Segovia and Villa Lobos.
Did you have a teacher that inspired you to go into music? How did they inspire you?
I was very fortunate to be able to start taking lessons when I first picked up my instrument and continue taking those lessons up until I left for college. I had the same teacher from 14 years old to 19 which is when I went to college. He was and still is a phenomenal teacher! He encouraged me to learn many styles and incorporated music theory into my lessons as well which I find can be somewhat lost when learning the guitar. When I got to college I had the honor of studying with one of Canada's most renowned classical guitarists whom, while very hard on me, was very inspiring! Those two have made me the player and the teacher I am today!
When will I start to see results?
I get this question all the time. If you are a beginner just picking up your instrument for the first time and you are practicing efficiently you should see results fairly quickly. However, this question completely depends on how much time is being spend practicing. As a beginning guitar player I had to start out practicing in short segments in order for my fingers to get in shape and stop hurting. Once the calluses on my fingers got stronger I was able to practice for longer periods of time and began to notice results faster. The more you practice, as long as it is done efficiently, the more results you will see.
What advice do you have about practicing effectively?
Always start with a warm up! I can't tell you how many times as a young kid I ignored that advice! Thankfully I smartened up and always warm up now. It is also very, very important to make sure you practice at least a short time each and every day versus trying to practice for one long session at the end of a long week. I also encourage to take whatever you may be working on, whether it be from your lesson or a separate piece of work, that you break it up into small sections. If what your working on is something like an ABA format, then focus on A before moving onto B rather than playing through the whole thing start to finish over, and over and over again, like so many of us like to do.
