I have a background working with youth and helping students be confident. I have been playing music for a long time and have finished all of my music minor except for a few music history courses I still need to take.

I have also been in many bands of different genres including pop, rock, hard rock, country, and indie. Read More

I am new. I would not say that I have a set teaching style yet. My point of view has been shaped and molded from those who have previously taught me. In my lessons I am sure I can reciprocate these past teachings to an adequate degree. I have only taught 2 students in person. But, generally I would like to develop basic skills first, breathing, posture, embouchure, angle of neck/face. Read More
