Instruments: Piano
I tailor my method selection to suit the needs of the student. With so many wonderful methods out there, what it comes down to is what will help the student learn the most! I highly emphasize Music Theory and Aural Skills; I believe that students should understand what they are playing. This understanding leads to more accurate performances and more solid memorization skills. I try to keep the student's musical education moving forward steadily at whatever pace the student learns best. Read More
Instruments: Piano Drums
I am an educator and musician with many vast and varied experiences in the field, from performing as a drummer in popular music groups, to instructing students individually and in groups from the time I was 16 years old. I began my college studies at Eastern Michigan University, becoming a member of the United States Military Academy Band at West Point after my junior year. While at West Point I completed my bachelor's degree at the State University of New York and a Master's in Music Education at Teachers College, Columbia University. Read More
Instruments: Piano Guitar Flute Drums Mallet Percussion Orchestral Percussion Keyboard Acoustic Guitar
I am very much a people person and enjoy adapting my teaching styles to the individual. Some people want to learn a very specific style of music, and others are open to learning everything. If the student does not read music, I always try to encourage a few lessons of just learning music theory. I find it very beneficial, even if the student just wants to learn guitar chords or tab.

As previously stated, I believe that each session should be individualized to best suit each student's needs. For a typical beginner, I will first teach posture and note identification followed by basic warm-ups. Once the basics are taught, the student will be allowed more flexibility in the repertoire and specific skills he/she wants to learn. For children, I may teach fun, short, simple songs first to keep the student engaged. Read More
Instruments: Piano
I'm a passionate and motivated instructor who loves working with students and sharing my love of music. In 2016, I graduated from Cleveland Institute of Music with a Artist Diploma degree in Piano Performance. Performing all over the world has been one of the greatest experiences of my life as a musician, and I've had the opportunity to play both at the Cleveland Severance Hall and Carnegie Hall in New York, as well as touring China, Japan, Australia, Ireland, France, Germany, Italy, Spain, Switzerland and Israel as several performances as the principle pianist with major orchestras.

Why did you choose your primary instrument?
When I was in 3rd grade there was an assembly where the 5th graders came to the theater in the round and played the string instruments for us. There were violins, a viola, cello and a bass. I was mesmerized by the cello and decided that I had to play that instrument. After I signed up the music teacher called my house and asked my mom if I might be interested in playing the bass because no one had signed up for it. My mom raised me on Motown music and asked me if I would like to play the instrument that was the heartbeat of all the music we loved and then told me that if I stuck with it that she & my dad would get me an electric bass when I got to high school. I was sold and ended up loving those low tones and being the musical anchor... still love it too!
What musical accomplishments are you most proud of?
I have toured the country with a number of different bands, recorded on a number of albums- including three that were all original music written by me- and have played hundreds of gigs a year for the past 15 years, and have been a successful teacher. I have been able to make a living playing and teaching music and have gotten to meet many interesting people and have been places that most people have not because of music. I have made so many friends and have had so many wonderful meals and can't imagine doing anything else.
Have any of your students won awards or been selected for special honors? How have they succeeded?
I'm not sure if they've won any awards but I do have quite a few former students who have gone on to college to study music and have become music teachers. I have another student who's band just got signed to a record deal and another who is on his way to study at Berklee College of Music. I have helped students write and record albums and have taught people to express themselves fearlessly and with confidence. I have little kids that look up to me and show up to their lessons excited to show me that they can perfectly play their lessons from the previous week and have had countless bands from rock band classes perform onstage for family and friends and sound amazing.
What do you think is the hardest thing to master on your instrument?
The hardest thing to master on the bass is the balance of good intonation and good time. Rhythm is the key to music and if the beat is not strong and felt within you then you are not really playing. As a bass player it is also important to be able to communicate the correct notes to the other musicians and it is hard to dial in the correct pitch on a fretless instrument that is almost as big as I am. Slowing everything down and understanding that it is better to take the time to learn something well than to get it right quickly without fully absorbing the lesson was another concept that took a while to sink in.
