I am a trumpeter, multi-instrumentalist, and composer/arranger in the Philadelphia and New York regions.

I hold a Master of Music degree in Jazz Performance from the University of the Arts; and a Bachelor of Science in Music degree concentrating in Jazz Studies and Theory Composition from the State University of New York at New Paltz.I have appeared on many albums during the past few years including my own debut solo album.

Instruments: Piano Voice
This method is especially helpful when I am teaching very young beginning students. I thrive teaching children between 6-9. I emphasize consistent good practice for a short period of time. I encourage my students to fit their practice in transitional times. Practice after dinner, practice before your homework, etc. for 5-10 minutes. It is consistent good practice that allows you to progress faster rather than long unfocused work. I find my students love this idea and it gives them proper freedom in their practice. Read More
Instruments: Piano Guitar Drums Music Keyboard Electric Guitar
I want to teach you how to play drums, guitar, or piano! I love music and guiding students to discovering their unique voice as a musician and creative. While I have been classically-trained on the drum set, I am completely self-taught when it comes to music theory. Whatever the style you're looking to learn, I am open and enthusiastic to teach it. The weirder, the better! I am versed in all genres, even niche sub-genres. Read More
Instruments: Piano Guitar Voice Bass Guitar Synthesizer Ukulele Keyboard Acoustic Guitar
My teaching style consists of setting realistic short term and long term goals for my students. I always make sure my students understand the material I am showing them. I encourage them to challenge themselves to achieve their goals they never thought they could achieve. 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
I've had numerous students over the years, and at every lesson try to leave the student with a clear path to follow that is not too demanding, while still leading on to new levels of development. Many techniques I use are self-learned from trial and error. I've done the work for the student. This enables the student to make the most progress with limited practice time. I show my students how to practice, and also encourage them to explore the music they love. Read More
Instruments: Piano Voice
Music should never be stressful to any degree. The goal is to share my love of music and singing with my students so that they may go on to share that passion with others or just to love this art form as much as I do. I am careful in noting a students' progress and am very attentive in what each student needs to succeed. I am a firm believer in the idea that EVERYONE can sing and the only thing holding us back is the lack of knowledge as to what barriers we need to drop and the things we need to do to be able to do so.

Instruments: Piano Saxophone Clarinet
Why did you choose your primary instrument?
I wanted to play the saxophone at the age of 4 because an older family friend who was 9 at the time started playing it in beginning band, and I thought he was one of the coolest kids ever. So when I turned 9, it was inevitable that I'd also play the sax in beginning band. That's really the only reason I chose to play the it. The rest of my career with the instrument is just a series of good teachers and good decisions that made it more or less the centerpiece of my life. It could be that I'm somehow better suited for a different instrument or a different life style but, really, who cares? I have no objections to the life choice that I made at the age of 4.
What musical accomplishments are you most proud of?
I'm extremely proud of the three awards that Bard College gave me while I studied there. I think they accurately reflect a lot of really hard work that I put in to improve. But I'm most proud of my final concert as a second semester senior at Bard, which is harder to describe succinctly in resume-format. But for this concert I wrote an hour's worth of original material based on a book I read by late 20th century psychologist, Julian Jaynes. I wanted the concert to be one cohesive piece of music that really took the listener on some kind of journey. I feel that I was really successful in doing so. It is the most difficult project I've undertaken to date.
What do you think is the hardest thing to master on your instrument?
The hardest thing to master on the saxophone is probably the tone. Out of the gates, we know that everybody's tone is going to be different because one of the resonators of the saxophone is your own mouth and throat. So two people playing the exact same horn with all the same equipment will still sound different. To add to the conundrum, even after you've developed really good embouchure and breathing habits and feel like you're getting an authentic sound, there are still myriad mouthpieces, ligatures, reeds, even saxophone necks which you can mix and match, every combination giving you a different sound. So it's tough to know what to change if you want your tone to change. Do you need to refine your technique? Do you need different equipment? Possibly both.
