Instruments: Piano Voice Trumpet Synthesizer French Horn Keyboard
I have taught music lessons both in college as well as for several years before that. I have experience coaching chamber groups, performing and running groups, as well as teaching both musical and non-musical subjects at a variety of levels, including one-on-one tutoring. I base all of my methods on proven cognitive research and fun yet rigorous hands-on experience. When I was younger, I experience many struggles as a musician, and had to work both hard and smart to overcome my more immediately talented peers. Read More

I like to start with the basics. Its important to let the student gain confidence in their instrument. So I start with very simple task that would be easy to do while I'm present so if they have any questions I can answer. I also do everything in three's...if we are working on the C scale and we get it correct I like to do it three time straight for memory. Read More

In essence, my love of teaching stems from my Mom's love of teaching. She sincerely desired to teach my siblings and myself to pursue our highest dreams. It turned out that I did succeed as a star performer in music, on stages around the world. But also, when I decided to settle down, I added education to my 10-year plan. So, I went back to school for another master's degree, and taught music in CPS - performing three nights per week with my the Bartels/Benson duo, Connexion Band, Prohibition Orchestra, Bryan Skyler Trio, and other groups.

I am a driven and holistic instructor that finds meaning, passion, and understanding from sharing music with others. I graduated from Northern Illinois University, in 2021 with a Bachelor of Arts degree in Trombone Performance. During my time at NIU, I studied with Jeremy Moeller, principal trombone of the Lyric Opera of Chicago. As a former member of the Cavalier's Drum and Bugle Corp, I have traveled around the country performing for various crowds with some of the best young brass players in the country. Read More

I'm a firm believer in taking a student where they are and building off of their interests. Finding what a student is interested in and using that as a starting point is a part of my teaching approach. At the same time, there are some things that are critical to be taught at every level that should be incorporated on some level so there's a holistic and balanced education. I find a combination of fundamental skills, scales, music theory, some history, critical thinking and analysis combined with whatever solo or individual study from school or other sources. Read More
Instruments: Guitar Voice Trumpet
I am passionate about teaching. Music education is but a second thought of most of our children's primary educational settings, so I wanted to create a learning environment that focuses on performance and execution. I am a composer and arranger, so I also like to infuse some basic music theory and compositional/improvisational techniques into my lessons. In short, I am trying to foster new artists! Read More

Beginning students will start out with technique practices, while introducing solo literature when appropriate. Technique studies can always be improved and studied, no matter a student's age or proficiency. I try to work within the repertoire a student is interested in at first, then expanding to materials and genres the student may find interesting to help broaden the experience and knowledge a student can gain from our lessons. No matter the age or ability level, I help students understand that each lesson and new idea or piece we learn adds to their experience, and experiences are building blocks for our futures. 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.
