Instruments: Piano
I have been playing the piano for 10 years, but have been involved in the musical institution for much longer than that. I have been shaping minds young and old in piano technique and music theory for the last seven years. And, I believe I am an ideal teacher for anyone just starting out to those who are trying to continue from where they left off. I have been afforded the pleasure of performing in many of my University's recitals and concerts as a solo pianist and ensemble piece. Read More
Instruments: Piano Cello Music
I am a positive and encouraging instructor, and emphasize proper technique, music theory, and fundamentals through a variety of musical styles ranging from classical to popular music. My students are all ages (I once had a student start at the age of 70!) and come from a variety of backgrounds and experiences. I work with students to help them balance a practice schedule with the rest of their lives. I consider myself to be a coach and facilitator and work with my students to set realistic, achievable, but challenging goals. Read More
Instruments: Piano Cello Music Keyboard
Depending on my student's age and skill level I usually have them begin with Suzuki books, Essential Elements books, or a combination of the two. As students advance I often incorporate etudes and/or exercises by Lee, Dotzauer, Galamian, Mooney, Sevcik, Duport, and Popper. While ear training is an essential skill that I teach to all of my students, the younger a student is the more I'll have them "play by ear" instead of reading sheet music. Read More
Instruments: Piano Flute Piccolo
No matter the level of the student, I think it is important for them to have achievable goals to work towards. I like to have my students always preparing for something, whether it is an audition, recital, or competition. We do this by working on a combination of solos, etudes, fundamentals, duets, and sight-reading activities. I like to make sure that whatever we are working on is at the right ability level for the student and challenges them appropriately. Read More

Instruments: Piano Saxophone Flute Clarinet
I teach music, not just instruments. I try to develop a broad appreciation for music that will stay with my students wherever they go in life. I take an individualized approach based on learning styles and strengths. I believe in positive reinforcement, especially with younger students! I also take into account preferences for music styles and attempt to use repertoire that not only broadens their experience, but keeps students focused and interested. Read More
Instruments: Piano Trombone
For beginner piano students, I start from teaching out of the Piano Adventure Series, and Theory Time books. The Piano Adventure Series is great because the song arrangements have tiered piano proficiency for beginner to intermediate players. After students work in these books, other repertoire can be added to perform for holidays and recitals. For trombone students, I first make sure my students make characteristic sounds and introduce music to meet their playing level. Read More
Instruments: Trumpet Saxophone Flute Clarinet
When did you decide to become a professional musician? Was it a gradual decision or was there a defining moment for you?
I decided to become a professional Musician once I was accepted to the Chicago symphony youth orchestral in the 4th grade. I was hired by the University of Chicago to teach private lesson to high school students when I was a sophomore In highs school. This has been a awesome journey and I am ready to plant plenty more seed into the new students that will allow me to embark upon their journey as a musician.
Does music run in your family? Tell us a little about your musical family members.
Yes music runs in my family. My grandmother had 12 children and all of them sang in the choir and played different instruments . They was called the Crosby Harmonizers and they performed throughout Chicago IL. I come from a family of 6 and my mother played the clarinet, my brothers sang in the choir, and two of them played the trumpet. One of my brothers was accepted to the same college I went to on a full scholarship playing his trumpet. My sister and I did clarinet and flute duets in the church. I Have a 7 year old daughter that plays the clarinet and she is in the north Memphis mass marching band.
If you have a Music Degree, what is it in (Performance, Education, Musicology, Theory, Composition, etc) and why did you choose that degree?
I currently have a Bachelors of Science in Music Performance. Being introduced to music at a very young age lead me into wanting to continue my passion with music. My gift made room for me to teach students something that is very special to this world. Music is something special and it relax our mind and prepare for peaceful environment.
What is your favorite style/genre of music to play and why?
I love to play gospel, classical, R&B, Hiphop, Jazz, Marching band music and the list goes on.
If you play more than one instrument, how did you decide to start playing the second? (Or 3rd, 4th, 5th, etc)!
Once you learn how to play the clarinet, its very easy to learn the saxophone and flute because they are very similar in many ways .
What does a normal practice session look like for you?
A normal practice section usually runs between 45min to a 1hr. We will have warm up time and then we will proceed in to our normal lesson. I will allow students to help me to better assist them on what they will like to learn and accomplish through out their lesson. If the students have any music from school that they need to tackle and work on we will work on that as well as the material I have prepared for the lesson. Sight reading rhythms and cross curriculum assignment will also be apart of our weekly lessons.
