Instruments: Trumpet Trombone Saxophone Clarinet Euphonium French Horn Tuba
It was a great honor. Late into highschool I was accepted at the DCI CADETS for 3rd trumpet part. This is the second best drum corp (at the time) in the world out of over a dozen different division 1 corps. I unfortunately was not able to perform with them, however it was a great honor just being able to be accepted and to practice with them for 4 months in New Jersey. Read More
Instruments: Trumpet Trombone Saxophone Flute Clarinet Drums Tuba Oboe
My starting point for my students is typically having them practice posture, hand position and proper mouthpiece placement. After this has been satisfied, I have the students blow using a breathing exercise. From this, I have the students play the first three notes out of their Habits of Good Musician Book 1. Students will continue in the book and proceed to their daily lesson exercises until they are ready to play other higher level music pieces. Read More
Instruments: Trumpet
My teaching style is very modern. I like to add the use of electronics to aid in the devlopment of players such as recordings, tuners, video, and other musical gadgets. I find that with music technology growth is exponential. I highly encourage my students, and there is no better feeling than to see one's eyes light and get excited about playing trumpet.I could literally talk for hours about playing my trumpet. Read More
Instruments: Trumpet Trombone French Horn
My method of teaching is to start students with a strong foundation of buzzing and making characteristic sounds on the horn. This includes buzzing with and without the mouthpiece. Also, my students must be able to read music. Reading music is very important to me, having the students be musically literate with a decent tone will take a student far in their musical career. Any beginning method book will be great such as, Tradition of Excellence or one of the Essential books as long as the student gets practice reading. Read More

I perform on Broadway also. I was in 22 performances at Theater Under the Stars in Houston. Read More
Instruments: Piano Trumpet Trombone Saxophone Flute Clarinet Drums Bass Guitar Ukulele Mallet Percussion Orchestral Percussion
It all started when I took my first drum lesson in the 4th grade. From then on, I wanted to play whenever I could. I played in all my school bands from middle school to high school. Graduated Southern University, home of the world famous "Human Jukebox" which I was a member of for 3 years, as well as playing for my church since I was 13. Along the way I have had the honor of meeting and learning from respected musicians such as Lawrence Jackson (former director of SU Bands), Herman Jackson (Brother of Randy Jackson), Jerry Lee Lane (Marching percussion pioneer) and countless others.

Instruments: Voice
When did you decide to become a professional musician? Was it a gradual decision or was there a defining moment for you?
I was in my first musical production and began playing the piano at five years old. I then started voice lessons around age eight. This was all my mother's doing, as she noticed my interest and love for music at an early age. Because of this, music has always been a huge part of my life, and my decision to study music and become a professional musician simply seemed like the natural path for me to take. I have wanted to be a professional singer for as long as I can remember. Music has been the one passion in my life that I know will never fade.
If you play more than one instrument, how did you decide to start playing the second? (Or 3rd, 4th, 5th, etc)!
In addition to singing, I also enjoy playing the piano and ukulele. My mother put me in piano lessons at five years old. Although this is not my primary instrument, the piano is extremely helpful to vocalists so we can play along with vocal exercises, learn melody or harmony lines with sheet music, or even to accompany ourselves during practice time or show time onstage. I am self-taught on the ukulele and enjoy playing for leisure and creative purposes. As a songwriter, I use both the piano and the ukulele to write my own material as well.
What do you think is the hardest thing to master on your instrument?
The most amazing and difficult thing about being a singer is that our body IS our instrument. I believe that the voice is never truly mastered because our body and our voice is always changing. Being a vocalists requires constant care and attention to assure that we are not being damaging to our vocal chords. This is why it is important to always warm up the voice and practice healthy singing techniques to ensure a long and lasting career. Singers that work to know and understand their voice are those that will be known as masters.
Why did you choose your primary instrument?
When I was in second grade, I vividly remember going to my very first concert: Shania Twain. We had amazing seats and I knew every word to every song. It was quite possibly the most exciting and fulfilling experience for me so far, at such a young age. In that moment of watching my idol onstage, I decided that I wanted to make audiences feel the way I felt. I knew then that I wanted to sing and perform and to entertain. In the years since then, my love for singing and performing has only grown stronger and I couldn't imagine my life outside of this industry.
