We then set about drawing up a practice routine, specific to that student. The practice routine is a set of 3-5 exercises taken from my library music books that will each touch on an area or skill that the student needs to work on. The routine will end with a song or piece of music for the student to read and practice. The student will practice this routine daily and the following week the student and I will sit down and play through the routine together. Read More
Instruments: Piano Guitar Flute Drums Ukulele Recorder Piccolo Mallet Percussion Orchestral Percussion Conga Latin Percussion Music Keyboard Acoustic Guitar
I learn by doing and I believe that my students should play what inspires them! If it's classical, let's study Bach and Mozart together - if it's Latin, let's study Dave Valentin and Johnny Pacheco. I have always had a broad taste in music and I think it's wonderful when students bring me songs that inspire them. Let's work the chords out together and study the greats! I believe that the engaged student will be the successful student. Read More

I have been teaching lessons since I was in high school. I began teaching private lessons part time and have been teaching students on and off ever since then. I firmly believe in every student's ability to succeed and so I emphasize consistent, focused practice. I have helped multiple students gain a love for their instrument and go on to compete and perform as well. I encourage the students have fun and pursue their dreams. Read More

My teaching experience comes from my experiences and lessons from my previous private teachers. During my 10 years of lessons I learned that importance of a regularly maintained practice schedule leads to the most effective practice sessions. I try to encourage students of all ages to seek out music that they find enjoyable and I do what i can to shape my lessons to make learning the music exciting. I try to anticipate a students need.

Instruments: Flute Piccolo
What advice do you have about practicing effectively?
Set a practice schedule of what you want to work on. Do not waste time on replaying parts that are easy and only focus your time on the difficult parts. This will help you finish a practice session faster and efficiently.
How do I know if my child is ready to start lessons?
If your child really wants to play flute and you see them struggling, have them start lessons as soon as possible. There may be a chance they will get frustrated and give up the flute because they dont have some one to teach them proper technique.
If your child is playing and trying to challenge themself, they may want to take lessons to excel faster in learning and learn difficult material.
When will I start to see results?
Each student learns at a different pace. Each week there will be goals and it is up to the student to practice out of lesson time in order apply techniques learned during lesson.
Did you have a teacher that inspired you to go into music? How did they inspire you?
My elementary school teacher inspired me to play flute. She demonstrated each instrument and when she played pink panther on the flute, I was sold.
Each instructor I had inspired me to work harder to become a better player
Why did you choose your primary instrument?
The band teacher in elementary school played the Pink Panther theme and I wanted to learn how to play that piece. Eventually I practiced more and fell in love with it.
What musical accomplishments are you most proud of?
I am most proud of making first chair in All State Band during high school. I practiced for hours each day and was determined to make it!
Have any of your students won awards or been selected for special honors? How have they succeeded?
Ive had students make it in to all count honor band, all state and received superior ratings a Solo and Ensemble. They followed my advice in the pieces and worked hard to apply those techniques.
What do you think is the hardest thing to master on your instrument?
Defintely the technical skills were difficult to develop but with practice over time became easier.
Do you use specific teaching methods or books? (Ex: Alfred, Bastion, Suzuki, Hal Leonard) Why did you choose them if you did?
Trevor Wye method books, Taffanel method and Rubanks 1 and 2. The Trevor Wye and Taffanel have challenging tone and technical development and the Rubanks books are great for beginner-intermediate studies.
What does a normal practice session look like for you?
I start out with long tones, scales, technical warm ups and then I move on to specific parts in the pieces that are difficult for me and work on that.
What is your favorite style/genre of music to play and why?
My favorite style is contemporary. It introduces modern techniques such as singing and playing flute or pitch bending to the flute.
If you play more than one instrument, how did you decide to start playing the second? (Or 3rd, 4th, 5th, etc)!
I started playing Oboe secondary because my school needed one in the other bands the school had to offer.
When did you decide to become a professional musician? Was it a gradual decision or was there a defining moment for you?
From 4th grade, flute has been my escape from reality. If I was having a bad day I would sit down with my flute and practice. It made me happy. When I got into high school is when I realized that I wanted to make it my career.
