I will share fun and efficient ways to practice so that you get immediate results. If desired, I also guarantee you will be playing a blues and improvising within a maximum of 6 weeks as long as you practice at least 10 minutes, three times a week.  You will have the option of playing along with recordings minus your part so that you can experience the joy of ensemble playing early on in the safety of your own home. I love creating small ensemble groups of students at similar levels and arranging concerts at regular intervals.

It is with this concept that I approach my lessons. Read More

Music has been my passion since grade school. I began teaching in the fall of 2006 and have engaged with students of all ages.

My style is very laid back but super informative. I have studied with at least 5 different fantastic teachers that have all taught me how I want to go about teaching my students.
