Helping a student become passionate about music is the most rewarding thing I can get from teaching. I set realistic goals that help the student progress at a rate geared towards the student's own pace. Positive feedback helps instill a desire to continue working and practicing regularly. This also pushes the student to wish to learn and work on more challenging materials. By learning where each student draws his/her own inspiration, I tailor our lessons to their goals while opening up their possibilities to go even further than what the student thought possible.

The most important philosophical concept about private lessons is this: proceed in a way that will maximize your potential to achieve an excellent goal that you can call your own. Although I am not limited to one method book or another, I typically use Arban's for trumpet lessons - with other books and repertoire along with it. My background is Suzuki violin, followed by music literacy and transposition. So, whatever method book we select, we must consider basic furthering of direct musical perceptions, in addition to achievement of stated goals. Read More

As an instructor and musician I have explored a huge variety of different musical styles froma roudn the world, as well as the cognitive fundamentals of learning. I try to preapre my students with learning tools that will allow them to continue improving even after my time as their instructor is over. I focus especially on building an understanding of how and why to acquire strong fundamentals, so that we can collaboratively drive their learning. Read More
Instruments: Guitar Voice Trumpet
I have been singing since I was 6, playing trumpet since I was 10, and I picked up guitar in my early 20's. I am now 49 and have taught voice, guitar, trumpet for over 7 years from my cozy home. I have been part of many musical ensembles (in many genres) in my 30 year career and have session work that's currently located in the Seattle Rock Roll museum. I have performed in varying capacities over 2,000 times in my career, and my emphasis is to help musicians prepare for live performances. Read More

What musical accomplishments are you most proud of?
I am most proud of my experience performing as a production singer and vocal captain for Carnival Cruise Lines. Performing on the Carnival Spirit gave me the opportunity to make a living as a performer while traveling the world. I could not have had that experience without years of music education in my life!
Why did you choose your primary instrument?
When I was in the 5th grade, I decided that I wanted to play the trumpet because my grandfather played the trumpet. As a kid I had always looked up to him growing up and playing the trumpet made sense to me. Singing was always a passion of mine even when I wasn't "studying" singing in the traditional sense. My love for signing, and my interests in other famously talented singers was what motivated me to pursue a degree in voice and vocal music education. When you know what you want to do in life, you don't stop until you make it happen!
How do I know if my child is ready to start lessons?
I believe your child is ready to start lessons if they are starting to show an interest in singing or playing and instrument, they have experience learning from an adult other than their parents, and can focus for a 20-30 minute lesson.
When will I start to see results?
Each student's growth is different, but my students will leave each lesson with new knowledge of concepts. Results are also influenced by the amount of time spent practicing outside of the lessons!
Did you have a teacher that inspired you to go into music? How did they inspire you?
Of course! I had several teachers that inspired me to go into music. Each one of these instructors believed in me, and pushed me to be a better musician.
It was their passion for teaching and belief in my abilities that helped shape me into the musician and educator that I am today.
What advice do you have about practicing effectively?
If you want to take you musicianship seriously, you really should try to practice everyday. One may think that the most productive practicing method would be to repeat an entire song over and over again, for as many hours in a row as possible, each day. However, it has been proven to be more effective to practice small segments of a piece of music, specifically the sections you are having the most trouble with, for shorter periods of time. By isolating the troubled sections, you're able to learn an entire piece of music in a shorter period of time.
