I enjoy seeing students playing music and learning songs and ideas on the own. I want to give my students the knowledge and ability to learn songs and music, independent of someone standing next to them to guide them.

I encourage students to play music that they enjoy playing while also maintaining the strong fundamentals required for playing an instrument well. This music can range from jazz to hip hop to pop to classical and everything in between.
