In college I began teaching drumlines over the summer for various high school programs. During that time is when I really began to fall in love with the teaching process and watching my students improve and grow as musicians.

I believe I really resonate with my students because although I got such a late start into music, through practice and hard work I was still able to be the musician I wanted to be. Read More

After asking these important question, I can contruct a personalized lesson plan based on the student's wants and needs. Read More
