I want to celebrate the wins we come across as much as possible as I know that inspires a lot of people to continue. I like to tailor everything to the students needs and desires while also giving them a broad knowledge to build from. Read More

Having studied Music for almost 20 years I have always wanted to give the gift of music to others through education.

I have had the opportunity to perform in several musical productions both on stage and in the pit orchestra, musicals from Miss Saigon, Phantom of the Opera, The Music Man, Footloose, Anything Goes, to Ragtime.

I like my students to bring a small notebook, so that they may write their homework down, and any practice assignments. I expect my students to keep a practice log of how much time they practice per week, in between lessons. I always insist that setting goals and expectations for them, is very important, as well as keeping track of whether they themselves are staying on task. I try and incorporate different ways of practicing or playing music, so that even practicing turns into being fun and exciting and doesn't feel like a chore. Read More

What advice do you have about practicing effectively?
Make it your goal to practice just 15 minutes a day and your growth as a musician will happen very quickly. Waiting for the last day before lessons does not give you the benefit of repetition over many days. Also, once you start your 15 minutes, you might actually enjoy the creative process and spend more time than you originally planned. The hurdle that we all need to overcome is TIME! We are all busy people, but music is essential to the human soul, so it is so important to make the time! Just 15 minutes a day will truly do wonders.
How do I know if my child is ready to start lessons?
For your child to be successful at the repetition and structure of learning the piano, they should show an interest and joy in music and learning an instrument. Your child will most likely be between 8 and 10 years old with a 30 minute attention span for sitting still long enough to do something like homework or read a book. Your child will have the fine and gross motor skills to write alphabet letters. It is imperative that your child be able to read and write, so they can be successful.
For vocal students, your child should be able to read and write, so again between the ages of 8-10 are good for beginning. The students at this age will catch up very quickly to peers who may have started their music training at a younger age. They will be musically and developmentally ready to start their music instruction.
When will I start to see results?
Enthusiastic parents and students can work together to see results. Parents can help students remember to practice at home as part of their daily routine. After 2-3 months of diligent 15 minutes/day practice, the students will show dramatic growth in their music skills. Parents who have a positive attitude and help students feel enthusiastic about practice will provide the structure and support students need to be more successful. Students should also find music that excites them and watch videos of musicians who inspire them and study the style of music they want to emulate.
What musical accomplishments are you most proud of?
I was the pianist for the LDS San Bernardino Stake Choir for over 4 years. I also had the honor of assisting with choir conducting there. I have accompanied youth and children's choirs for over 20 years. For singing, I have sung duets and solos since I was in high school and I am always watching and learning and applying new style and techniques to my performances.
