I have my own piano studio for 5 years before I relocated to Colorado. I had more than 20 students at one year before Covid. After covid, I added video class to my studio.

I believe it's important for students and teachers to work together to set goals for what the student wants to accomplish. In this sense, I can be flexible -- I'm willing to push students who want to be challenged, or be a little more laid back for those who want music to be a side hobby. We will work together to create a plan that meets your needs. I also believe in fun! Read More

Instruments: Trumpet Saxophone French Horn

My love of teaching begins years ago from being a beginner student and helping my peers understand their instruments. In high school I was a section leader in marching and concert band for two years, leading sectional rehearsals and helping students one-on-one.

In college this continued as I was in the studio with other saxophonists and in methods classes with other musicians. Read More

Because of these beliefs, I typically structure my own curriculum based on the student's skill level, interests, and goals. This will include my own printed materials and curricula.

I can teach any player to read sheet music, and that would ideally be done with beginners as well - however, if this is not in your interests, we don't need to go there. Read More

Nothing is more pleasant than being able to inspire my students to become passionate in what they do, and do what they love. The first thing i do when i begin the process of teaching a student is to ask him/her what he desires to achieve with what he wants to learn, from there i establish the intensity and demand in the apprenticeship. For those who want to achieve a professional level in the instrument must compromise his effort and his time in the study of his instrument. Read More
