Instruments: Piano Violin Music
I have been teaching for 5 years to a wide range of ages. I take an individualistic approach to teaching, tailoring my lessons to my students. I teach violin for all levels and beginner/intermediate piano. I encourage all my students to learn how to read music and have a basic understanding of theory. I prefer a mix of a musical and technical approach and encourage a slow but steady timeline for learning. Read More
Instruments: Piano Guitar
It is of upmost importance that I tailor my teaching method to my student's learning pace and their ability to comfortably grasp that particular instrument's technique. One of my strongest traits is my patience with students of young ages. Read More
Instruments: Piano Guitar Keyboard Electric Guitar Classical Guitar Acoustic Guitar
I have been playing guitar since I was 13. I started playing in bands as soon as I could. When I turned 19, I started to pursue my undergrad in classical guitar performance. My major allowed me to delve into many different styles of music such ranging from classical to popular folk music from South America. While doing my undergrad, I did a lot of private teaching on the side where I was introduced to so many other genres of music. Read More
Instruments: Piano Synthesizer Keyboard
For younger children I typically begin with the Alfred Piano Lessons series as I find the songs very accessible, catchy, and the format of the book to be engagaing for kids. The series is also very suited to a complete beginner in its introduction of new concepts and will have the child already playing songs by the end of the first lesson. For older students I will skip over easy material in an effort to simply fill in the gaps of what they already know or can learn quickly and focus on moving them more into music they are interested in playing.

I feel very rewarded seeing my students develop a passion for music! I try to teach each student at his or her own pase. I encourage this by setting realistic goals for my students at each lesson. Acknowledging accomplishments helps fuel a students desire to progress, and makes students eager to learn more. By trying to find out what inspires the student, I can successfully tailor my instruction to their wants and needs. Read More
Instruments: Piano Voice Keyboard
I have my special teaching method "PPP" which refers to "Passionate, Personal and Professional". "Passionate" - I believe that music should help people find the beauty and happiness in their lives; "Personal" - Teaching should be very personal! Everyone has a different background and we are all unique! I always custom lesson plans for each of my students and we could discuss about your personal plan; "Professional" - No matter if you are learning music for fun or you have a goal in pursuing music as a career, I would always teach and help the students to improve the musicianships under the professional standard.

If you weren't a musician what do you think you'd be doing instead?
I am actually pursuing my dream job, being a college professor, teaching philosophy and education. I love music, but philosophy and education is something of a higher power for me. I study national education policy and state education policy. I hope one day I am able to change the way federal and state policy is enacted. I believe the state of education is going the wrong way. Teachers should have complete control of what they teach and how they teach it. This is something I am really passionate about.
What is your favorite style/genre of music to play and why?
I answered this question above. I love everything. I am not opposed to playing any style. I have played country, celtic, funk, blues, jazz, hip-hop, indie rock, folk rock, and more. I do love playing indie rock though. As long as I am creating something new I am happy. Music is infinite and you can play something twice and it will be different each time. That is why music is special. Music can be difficult and easy, but it is always fun. I will play anything at anytime. There is nothing I would not play.
If you play more than one instrument, how did you decide to start playing the second? (Or 3rd, 4th, 5th, etc)!
I had tolerant just about every instrument in my music education program. I had to take piano for two years in college, classical piano and jazz piano. This helped me out greatly when it came to composing songs. The piano is like having every instrument at your finger tips it is the best instrument. I love paying other instruments because it is a new world for me both physically and mentally. I am like a kid in a candy shop. I recently started playing trumpet because it seemed challenging, and it is, but it is very fun.
Does music run in your family? Tell us a little about your musical family members.
Music does not run in my family. I took the pains of learning how to play music at the age of twenty-four years old. I learned how to read music, learn by ear, and physically play. This was an amazing experience for me. It helped me see that discipline is the main source in learning to play music. I had a great work ethic before I started to play and now it is even stronger because of music. I am the only one in my family that plays music. I learned from friends, teachers, and on the job training.
When did you decide to become a professional musician? Was it a gradual decision or was there a defining moment for you?
I fell into playing music professionally. I was professionally playing before I went to college for music. I played about four to five nights a week an learned everything from playing live, sort of. I practiced about eight hours a day on top of working, building houses. I had the passion, drive, and want to go somewhere with music. I made it happen by playing and practicing. I made sure that I was humble, reliable, and good at what I did. These reasons are the only reasons why I was able to play professionally.
