I have been working out of my record studio since 2013 but I have been recording since 2004. I have also served as the assistant band director at midfield high. Giving rudimentary lessons to the drummers and working on the theory and range with the upper brass was one of the many jobs that I was assigned to as assistant director. I have worked with middle school high school colleges and clients who just wanted to record or get better. Read More

My passion for teaching stringed instruments has brought me to work with students from the ages of 6 to 23 during my college career. I have also spent many semesters tutoring Music Theory to my peers. I work to create a supportive environment for my students that help them to grow as musicians technically and expressively. I encourage practicing for all my students, assigning practicing requirements that will challenge students but I know are accomplishable in the week between lessons. Read More

I feel that it's important that each student progresses at his or her own pace. I encourage this by setting realistic goals and assignments for my students at each lesson. This measurable progression of accomplishments helps fuel a students desire to progress, and makes students eager to learn more. Of course finding out the students problem areas is also paramount to helping them progress at the fastest rate possible. I also believe that while our relationship is professional, I do take a personal interest in each of my students as some of the best teachers I have ever had, took a personal interest in me.

When students recognize their own growth, it fuels their motivation and keeps them excited about learning. I also make it a priority to understand what inspires each student. Whether it is a favorite style, a musical hero, or a personal goal, learning what resonates with them helps me tailor instruction to their needs and interests. Above all, I want every student to feel supported, challenged, and inspired. When students enjoy the process, they develop not only skill but also a lifelong appreciation for music. Read More

I have been involved in music my entire life, starting in a percussion group and choir in elementary school. I started on the clarinet at the beginning of middle school.

I have been selected and performed in multiple honor bands across my time in middle and high school, including Troy University's honor band and All State. Read More
