Instruments: Saxophone
I tailor my materials, method, and philosophies to the ability and goal of each student. Typically, regular students can expect lessons to cover fundamental aspects of playing the saxophone (embouchure development, technique exercises, etc..) as well as the music and etudes we may be covering. For students with an interest in music theory or improvisation, I like to learn those things alongside common jazz standards so that the knowledge you obtain can be immediately applied in a real musical setting.

I want my students to enjoy their music lessons, I don't want it to feel like a chore. It can be really fulfilling when I see a student playing or singing something with joy! I pay close attention to what exercises students seem to want to spend the most time on and the ones they get frustrated with. This helps me balance the lesson by breaking things up and putting them in an appropriate order so the student will stay engaged. Read More

A passionate student is a happy student, so I take special care to ensure that each student develops at their own pace. I like to encourage students to set goals for themselves to get an idea of where they think they are musically, and help them to tailor these goals into small and accomplish tasks. I also think it is extremely important to praise students for working on their material, as this helps encourage them to try even harder and push their boundaries. Read More

I'm a New York based multi-instrumentalist eager to share the craft of making music. I have been performing and teaching professionally for 15 years, since having moved to New York to study at The New School for Jazz and Contemporary Music. There, I learned many styles of music and skills that I use to this day while performing. I've had the opportunity to perform at many exciting venues including the Belleayre Jazz Festival, the Rose Theater at JALC, Pier 17, Terminal 5, Webster Hall, Symphony Space, Dizzy's Club Coca-Cola, and a live television performance on Live with Kelly and Ryan.

My primary goal as a teacher is to help students make practical steps toward better playing by identifying areas of difficulty and working with the student to establish reasonable goals. In learning music, improvement comes through setting clear goals and performing consistent exercises that address areas of weakness. My desire is to work with students to identify those areas of weakness and help them find applicable exercises. When I work with students in any capacity, I seek to diagnose misunderstandings and lead them to understanding through leading questions. Read More
