I began teaching percussion immediately after high school. While attending EKU, I helped my former high school by teaching the percussion section during the marching band season. I taught the section every year for about 12 years before being hired as a full-time teacher and becoming the assistant director of the band. I still mainly focus on the percussion section every year, but my responsibilities have spread to assisting with other sections of the band as well. Read More

Nothing makes me feel better than seeing my students enjoy their time with the instrument! Therefore, I feel that it's necessary to fit my teaching style to the student's desire. I start the first lesson by asking them about the music that they listen to to get a sense of their music style. Furthermore, I am interested in the student's goals for their lessons. After asking these important question, I can contruct a personalized lesson plan based on the student's wants and needs. Read More

In my experience, this can be very encouraging and inspirational for students, especially when they've been frustrated with their progress or are worried because they don't believe they can play at the level they want. Over the past 4 years of teaching students, I believe my greatest strength is inspiring students to be the best they can, and learning to disregard what others may think, because music is all about your enjoyment!

I teach in the bel canto style as I was taught, focusing on developing a greater capacity for breath control, relaxation of the tongue and jaw, good posture, and freedom of movement.

I develop a plan for the student each week, like learning a section of a piece or working on diction in a specific verse, but adapt this plan depending on how the student feels that day and what their input is.
