I have been insfluenced and surrounded with music since childhood. I have experience in multiple aspects of music from performance to teaching and just about everything in between. I love working with students to achieve their goals. The most rewarding feeling for me is when my student feels they've accomplished a technique or method on their respective instrument. I strive to keep lessons joyous yet keep the student motivated to practice at home. Read More

This helps ensure that the student can thrive musically and in life. Also I do a lot of "visualizing" while teaching my students. Often, if they are struggling, I'll tell them to say something like, "I can do it" aloud a few times. I also have them close their eyes and really listen to me playing so they can visualize what it's like to play the chord or song before they even start to actually play. Read More

For piano lessons I generally prefer to use the Alfred curriculum, but am well versed in other options should the student already be accustomed to certain styles. I have assisted students with their Certificate of Merit completion, and worked several students through the entire Alfred curriculum, till they went on to achieve collegiate scholarship opportunities. As a voice teacher, I employ a Bel Canto technique, and specialize in a Musical Theater Style and Classical Background. Read More

I have been playing the piano since the age of 8. I always loved learning new music and I try to pass that love on to my students. I work with them to practice efficiently and to bring out the best in them. I love working with adults as well as children and about half of my class are adults. I try to have a good sense of humor with all my students. Read More

My teaching career began when I was in high school. My primary goal at the time was to gain experience in teaching and with it, brought much trial and error. I honed my expertise in music and teaching, while learning about the countless way in which a student learns. I submitted a proposal to present in Texas and was selected to present my lecture on "Teaching Methods", and gained much insight into the learning process of students. Read More

As a teacher I take pride in seeing my students grow and develop their own personal connection to music! It is very important to set goals so I encourage students to set their own goals of learning as well as set some lesson oriented goals for them as well. Finding out what interests the student makes my job challenging but fun in the way I can design lessons that will better assist growth! Read More

What advice do you have about practicing effectively?
Taking frequent breaks in practice is very important for any instrument. For trumpet, you don’t want to over-play and hurt your lips. The way I tackle this is to take breaks as much as you play- even if that includes timing yourself to have equal practice and break time. It is important to have a steady warmup, that may change but contain the same elements. For every student, their practice with technical studies vs literature is different. It is important to be aware of this practicing behavior. Many students will play the beginning of a piece every time they practice and totally neglect the rest of the piece; many have bad practicing habits and we can fix them, easily!
How do I know if my child is ready to start lessons?
If your child is remotely interested in trumpet or if they are a beginner in band, they can definitely start taking lessons! In school, your child can excel with private lessons and thrive being a musician. Not having lessons as a child, it was extremely confusing figuring out where to start with practicing and even what skills to develop. Your child will want to excel and be first chair in band, but practicing trumpet is so much more than that. It allows them to keep a practice schedule and have something they truly care about! Motivation in a child’s life is extremely important as it can be easy to be apathetic in school; music can be the light in a child’s life.
When will I start to see results?
While every music student’s journey is different, taking lessons will be vital in their success. How much a student wants to practice can be changed with a little motivation. As for concrete results, you should see results right away with the student’s practice. Even a little practicing is huge for the student, especially for beginners. Lessons do require a committed student who is willing to follow through with practicing and performing, but I work very hard to motivate students to find their passion.
Did you have a teacher that inspired you to go into music? How did they inspire you?
I had several teachers who inspired me to pursue and thrive in music. In high school, I spent a lot of time playing around and was uninterested in music. I started college wanting an agricultural degree. But I decided to play in Jazz 2, the second band, with Greg Ball as the director, and I thought “Why am I doing anything other than music?”. Greg Ball made the rehearsal experience so much more than about the music we were playing and making it an enjoyable experience for everyone. From then I decided to be a music major, when I met Dr. Brian Walker. Dr. Walker pushed me to the limit in my lessons and made me work harder and harder throughout my degree. Even though it was a very difficult road, there was always a huge amount of payoff! Many other teachers helped me through my music courses and I joined several different ensembles in college, including vocal ensembles. I have always believed that it is important to expand and discover what you enjoy. Music is a universal language and even if your child decides they don’t want to pursue trumpet in the future, it will have always been a part of their lives and those skills can transfer to other real world skills.
