After that, we start working on the songs you want to perform. If you have recording that you learn from we can work with those. If you bring sheet music, its even better. If you don't have any songs in mind, I have a large library of music to chose from across many different styles. I have written my own book on music fundamentals for adults, and create custom materials for my students depending on their needs. Read More

As I focus on the musical needs and interests of my students, I strive to create life-long musicians. My lessons are structured into activities that incorporate various aspects of music appreciation: Music theory, music history, music technology, performance practice, etc. (making such lessons comprehensive). Typically, we begin with a repertoire of warm-up exercises custom-tailored to your instrument but also for your current skill level and learning style (as created by me). Read More

My performance and teaching experience date back to when I was in the 6th grade when I joined band class in middle school.

In all of the music competitions and audition, I never made anything less than 1st chair - all the way until end of high school, and all the way up to the state level competitions. Read More

I believe that every student has the potential to succeed. It is my goal as an instructor to guide the student toward their vision of success, whether it be personal, professional, or some mixture of both.
