I then received my Masters of Arts in Music Education along with New York state certification for grades Pre-K through 12th grade. The year I graduated with my masters I was hired to work for the New York city Department of Education teaching general music and Band to grades Pre-K through eighth grade. I loved teaching, but I knew I wanted to learn more, which brings me to where I am now. Read More

I approach teaching on an individual basis, meaning it's important to me to know the goals, hopes, passions, and if applicable, the worries or insecurities the student is feeling. In a first lesson I identify something that is special and unique about each student, and build their technique from this place. I find this helps the difficult areas feel a little less challenging because they already have something they feel proud of when working through the discomfort of something new or intimidating.

Instruments: Piano
When I teach children, I use the adventures piano lesson book. When I see that the student are advancing, I encourage them to further their knowledge. I make sure my students learn the scales; which are very important. I also use the Hanon book for exercises when my students begin to advance to a higher level of understanding. I have multiple pieces prepared for my students to play in order for them to be ready to play recitals. Read More
Instruments: Piano Voice
What is your favorite style/genre of music to play and why?
My favorite genre, indefinitely, would be opera. Opera is a visual and audible spectacle and the music written for these grand pieces of music are filled to the brim with interesting characters, challenging yet rewarding runs and melismas, beautiful sounds and most importantly (for me as a tenor, that is...) high notes at every corner with some of them being at the highlight or most stunning moment of the entire piece/possibly the entire opera.
It's beautiful music and to sing it brings me joy.
If you weren't a musician what do you think you'd be doing instead?
I believe I would be pursuing a career in either art or film if I had not pursued a career as a music teacher. Film because I'm a lover of editing and am fascinating with the many techniques that can bring a film to life. Art because the visual spectacles people can come up with is fascinating to me and to make a career bringing that to life would be outstanding.
What is your dream piece to perform and why?
That is a tricky question...
I believe my dream piece to perform would be either Una Furtiva Lagrima from Donizetti's "L'elisir d'amore", Du Bist Meine Sonne from Franz Lehar's "Giuditta", Che Gelida Manina from Puccini's "La Boheme" or "Salut! Demeure Chaste et Pure" from Gounod's Faust.
I wish to sing ALL of these because of how beautiful the pieces are and to sing them on a professional stage would mean the world to me, as I would be sharing this beautiful music with others.
If you have a Music Degree, what is it in (Performance, Education, Musicology, Theory, Composition, etc) and why did you choose that degree?
I have a Bachelor's in Music Education. I chose to pursue and achieve this degree because I am in love with music and what it can do physically, mentally, psychologically and emotionally for people of any age. I also have been fascinating since I was a wee lad with being a teacher and teaching something I love dearly, that being music, seemed like the best choice!
I am also pursuing, currently at this moment, a Master's in Opera as opera is my definitive genre of music which I love to sing.
Did you have a teacher that inspired you to go into music? How did they inspire you?
Yes. My biggest inspiration when it came to the field of music was Dr. Edward Martinez of Gardiners Elementary School. I still find him to have been one of the most amazing, talented and knowledgable music teachers I will ever come to know both in my career as an acting singer and teacher. He inspired me to pursue Music Education not only through his love of the field but also his ability to convey that anything and everything is possible if you put your mind to it. He truly was an amazing man.
