From a young age I have been an active teacher. Advanced for my age I vividly remember tutoring my classmates in the Fourth grade.

I was employed for 3 years at the local Presbyterian Church as the adult and childrens choir conductor. Read More

Most of my students use Alfred's Piano Course. After just a few lessons, we add in additional books and songs to expose the student to as much music as possible. I believe that the more music a student is exposed to, the better a musician he or she becomes. With the exception of recital pieces, I rarely spend more than a few weeks on one song, but instead focus on guiding students to play a wide variety of music at their level. Read More
