I am a sixth semester student at Berklee College of Music, dual majoring in saxophone performance and jazz composition, and have studied with many inspiring professors as well as learned from many amazing educators. Since entering Berklee I have been able to not only study the material and concepts, but I have also gotten to study professors and how they educate students of all different backgrounds, all different levels of understanding, and how they navigate teaching a class with students who are all at different stages and levels of grasping material.

Instruments: Piano Voice Organ
In order to succeed at the keyboard, a student's technique must be ahead of their literature. This is why I use a well-developed system of technical exercises that are easy to understand and implement that allows the student to quickly gain mastery of the instrument. These techniques were thoroughly developed and taught by my mentor, Dr. Jill Sprenger, and I have seen students of all types succeed with them. I also use a self-paced program of theory skills and ear-training exercises that complement the wide variety of literature that excites each student. Read More
Instruments: Piano
My teaching style depends very much on what your goal is in deciding to learn to play piano. I can teach you how to play classical piano, piano improvisation, piano accompaniment, or how to play in a certain style with a musical group. Your goal as a student determines the approach we take. That being said, typically, I take a three pronged approach toward teaching: 1. Theory; teach the fundamentals of sight reading and music theory in small increments and apply them by creating custom musical exercises. 2. Read More

Most schools use the Hal Leonard Essential Elements and I tend to focus on this method as supplemental instruction but other methods are fine as well especially if the student is already working through a particular method book. For young students I encourage a mix of formal music instruction with music the student enjoys. Nothing unlocks a love of learning like discovering how your favorite music works! Adult students are welcome to tailor their lessons to their musical goals whether that's learning Bach or Breaking Benjamin! Read More
Instruments: Piano Flute Piccolo
I believe that it is important to tailor lessons to my individual students, helping to foster a love of music and learning. I think it is important for my students to have goals that they are striving to achieve. They can be big goals, like making it into a college of choice, but I also think small ones are important, like mastering the Bb major scale. We work towards goals and celebrate accomplishments together to help drive each student's passion. Read More

Why did you choose your primary instrument?
I was 7 when my Dad put a keyboard before me and I have been hopelessly hooked every since.
Did you have a teacher that inspired you to go into music? How did they inspire you?
Not a teacher, but my Father. I was 7 years old when he placed a keyboard in my hand and it never departed thereafter. When I was 9, I took my babysitting money and paid for my own private lessons and walked 4 blocks each week to get to them. When I was 13, I started working at a nursing home afterschool and on weekends, and paid $1300.00 for my very own Kwai Organ. I loved singing and playing. However, my father always said it was not a good way of making a living or I believe it would have been my first vocation earlier in life. In that sense, the one who inspired me also discouraged me.
When will I start to see results?
Everyone and every class is different. However most students are playing recognizable songs and selections within a few months.
How do I know if my child is ready to start lessons?
The truth is, that is a hard thing to determine but there are tell tale signs that you can look for. Those include the child playing with their fingers and not their entire hand. Playing one key at a time instead of banging on the keys. Singing and pretending to play or actually picking up the right note for some songs. Sometimes just clapping in rhythm, singing with good pitch or banging something with good rhythm can be signs. Being able to sit still for small periods of time and good focus help. However, the best way of knowing is letting your child do a trial lesson with an instructor that is experienced in teaching that age group. They will be able to let you know if your child is ready or if 6 months to a year will make all the difference in the world!
What musical accomplishments are you most proud of?
I am most proud of seeing my students compete in school and local talent shows and complete national online testing and contests successfully. I even have some that have competed on America's got talent. If I were to say my greatest personal accomplishment is that I taught my own children (now grown) to play and I have 6 of my 8 grandchildren that also play. My grandkids range in age from 5 to 14. I never coerced them to play. Each of them came and asked to be taught one by one. Many of my colleagues cannot teach their own children. My grandchildren often play for our Church services and are paid well when they do.
