Instruments: Piano
I have been playing piano since elementary school and discovered very early on how much I love it. I took up the violin later though the piano continues to be my first love. Long before graduating from high school, I knew I wanted to study music in college and make music a part of my daily life. I discovered the joy of collaborative playing in college and hve played with a number of different musicians since then. Read More
Instruments: Piano Voice
My experience teaching started in college. I was lucky enough to be elected the Music Director of an all male a cappella group at Missouri State and much of my time was spent teaching vocal techniques, musicianship, and arranging to the group as well as individually. At this time, I was also the tenor section leader for the Missouri State Concert Chorale under the direction of Dr. Guy Webb. After college, I pursued a teaching career in Birmingham, AL where I taught private voice and piano lessons to 30-40 students a week as well as coaching group classes and rock bands for competition.

Instruments: Piano Voice Cello Drums Bass Guitar Synthesizer Music Keyboard
I am sure to acknowledge accomplishments, not only by finding and setting milestones with each student to discover during lessons, but by (as effectively as I can) creating opportunities for students to perform a recital and demonstrate what they have learned for friends and family. I also make a point of ensuring students know that their lessons with me are a safe and inclusive space. I work to get to know the student to understand how they learn but also what circumstances might be troubling them and affecting their ability to learn happily and effectively. Read More
Instruments: Piano Guitar Fiddle Electric Guitar Acoustic Guitar
I started teaching privately while attending university in Denver, concentrating in jazz and American improvised styles on guitar. Although while I love jazz some of my favorite music is surf, classic country, and soul (blues and rock n roll too). I have 7+ years teaching experience and for the past several years had been teaching from my home office in Wheat Ridge, although now I also teach out of the Golden Music School as well. Read More
Instruments: Piano Violin
For beginning students on violin we start with many techniques found in the Suzuki method. From there, we jump into different styles of music while still focusing on developing solid technical foundations for the student. Once we move into standard repertoire the lessons begin to change based on what the student needs. I am a firm believer in consistent practice. I would much rather have a student who practices daily for 15 minutes then a student who does not practice except for the day before their lesson for two hours. Read More
Instruments: Piano Voice Trombone
Nothing is more rewarding than seeing my students' develop a passion for music. I like to let students develop at their own pace. Realistic goals are set, and we work to meet them with each lesson. I love tailoring instruction to students' needs! Read More
Instruments: Piano Keyboard
My teaching philosophy is to develop my student’s potential. The autobiography by Russian opera singer Galina Vishnevskaya was truly an inspiration to me. One of her teachers almost destroyed her voice, while another revived it and developed to be one of the best voices of her time. That is what I strive to do when I teach my students – to realize their potential, to give them skills and knowledge, to inspire them to grow and to reach higher horizons. Read More
Instruments: Piano Saxophone Flute Bass Guitar
If you play more than one instrument, how did you decide to start playing the second? (Or 3rd, 4th, 5th, etc)!
I learned flute and some clarinet because they are useful doubles in the world of saxophone playing.
Bass is my true love because it allows the sound of the band to come together. Getting the privilege of playing the part that allows the band to sound as one is always inspiring.
If you have a Music Degree, what is it in (Performance, Education, Musicology, Theory, Composition, etc) and why did you choose that degree?
I got my degree in Performance because it allows you to learn all of the above. You should know the history of your instrument and genre, the theory of what is being performed, and you should compose if you want to be a performer that speaks eloquently and honestly.,
What does a normal practice session look like for you?
When I have a clear head I work on tone, then scales (technique), time (scales to a metronome) and repertoire. I let myself get creative in repertoire by changing up styles, songs, tempos, etc. I practice each section as long as I can be effective (I don't believe in putting time limits on what I do). If I'm having a rough day, I'll just play whatever I want as it comes to me. It keeps me from getting discouraged and still allows me to play/ practice.
What do you think is the hardest thing to master on your instrument?
The hardest thing to master is technique. Creating efficient technique that will allow you to perform what you hear or want to play is the biggest learning curve for any instrument.
Why did you choose your primary instrument?
I found my Dad's saxophone at my grandparents and kept trying to make sound out of it until my parents decided it was time for lessons so they didn't have to listen to me squeaking throughout the house. It stuck from there.
What musical accomplishments are you most proud of?
I'm most proud of the different bands I'm in currently. It has allowed me to adapt to all different kinds of genres and see how they connect.
It's important to listen to ALL kinds of music and gather your own opinions and interests. That's when good music starts to be made.
Did you have a teacher that inspired you to go into music? How did they inspire you?
The teacher that inspired me the most was the one that talked about music like it was apart of life. There was no difference between playing and breathing to him. It was just something that lived inside everyone and it was up to you to decide how it fits into your life.
When will I start to see results?
Results will show fairly frequently in the beginning because they are learning so many new ideas and techniques playing an instrument requires. As time goes on results will show by the amount of effort each student puts in. The more they think, listen, and play music, the quicker they will improve.
How do I know if my child is ready to start lessons?
Any child that shows an interest in music or playing is ready.
What advice do you have about practicing effectively?
Practicing is not about sitting down for hours everyday. I suggest practicing once a day for as long as you can be effective. Whether that is 5 minutes or 2 hours, our brains will retain information better through consistency, not quantity.
