I'm a professional musician and teacher with experience all across the musical spectrum. I have played both the cello and bass for professional orchestras (Idaho Falls Symphony, Brevard Symphony Orchestra), recording sessions, jazz bands, wedding/party bands, string quartets, bands for singers, and solo performances. I also spent a year and a half as a pianist, playing at the SLC International Airport and a top-rated Italian restaurant. I started with the piano and the drums at age 9. Read More

For very beginners, I will typically start with a basic method book, such as Hal Leonard to learn the essentials of basic technique. For adults or students with more experience, I will cater my lessons specifically to each students interests and goals as I find that this is the best way to keep students engaged and excited to learn.

I take a very personalized teaching style. Like I said in the My Methods section, I first find out the students favorite music, musicians, songs. Then I create lessons around that information. I am teaching the students chords, theory and structure while they are learning their favorite songs. And let me tell you, when students learn their first song, it is a rush that motivates them to learn more. I am very patient and work with students at their pace. Read More
