I love setting lofty, reasonably challenging goals for my students and giving them music they think is too hard to play, and then watching their faces light up when they hit all the right notes they didn't know were possible to hit. I have multiple guitars of varying sizes for children and beginners, an upright piano (pictured), stage equipment, recording equipment, keyboards, tuners, strings, etc. I incorporate proper instrument care, music history and love convincing students to love new genres, styles and cultures of music.

As professional musician, I've been taught trough classical theory training, but as jazz major I also know a lot about jazz theory which gave me both approaches to teaching in the most efficient and comfortable way that the student ask me to, ( not everybody learns in the same way for sure). I'm also excited about learning from my students because it is something that I do like and appreciate a lot. Read More
Instruments: Piano Voice
I started teaching voice and piano lessons while I was a student at Wartburg College. I continued teaching when I moved to New Mexico and I now have ten years of studio teaching experience. After completing my Master's Degree in Vocal Performance, I returned to UNM to attain a New Mexico Teaching License. I have been teaching elementary music in the public schools for five years since attaining that license. Read More

I incorporate a well-rounded approach with my students by teaching musical skills beyond their particular instruments such as aural skills and theory. I use my background and training in Kodaly and Orff to teach music like a language by directing my students through experience and practice of the concept for better understanding. I use positive reinforcement and keep things fun for all ages. In each lesson, I work on aural skills and theory through fun warm-up games that get gradually more challenging as time continues.

I believe teaching music doesn’t just teach music—it teaches us life skills that are applicable to any field and any situation. My teaching philosophy is a mix of many ideas, and I believe it is more successful the more places I incorporate ideas from. --Capital High School Academy for the Performing Arts recipient of the "Music Legend" Award --New Mexico high School All-State trombonist, 2002, 2003 --New Mexico Inter-Collegiate Honor Band, 2006 --Fudung University, Shanghai, China certificate of appreciation for contributions to the performing festival at the 2010 World Expo Music Festival --Outstanding musicianship award, University of Nevada at Reno Jazz Festival, April of 2008, and 2011 for composition as well as outstanding soloist. --New Mexico State University Honors Recital performer, Fall 2007, Spring 2008 --Graduate Assistant to Athletic Bands, University of Utah, 2009-2011 --Performed with artists such as: John Fedchock, Steve Houghton, Byron Stripling, Doc Severinson, Jeff Nielsen, the Harry James Orchestra, Phil Campo and the "Loose Change" Jazz band, Five by Design, Gene Pokorney, and many others. --Current Middle and high school Choir/Band director with Albuquerque Public Schools --Clinician for various schools in area -Composer/Arranger Read More

What advice do you have about practicing effectively?
I would say practice makes perfect because the more you practice and the less slop you let get by then the better off you will be in the end.
If you practice along with a metronome that helps out alot for when you find a drummer.
Also playing along with a cd if you are trying to make it sound just like the original help out alot,
If you practice just a little a day until you feel satisfied that will go a long way eventually.
just 15 minutes a day is better then picking up your guitar once a week when you come to a lesson.
How do I know if my child is ready to start lessons?
If your child is eager to learn then he is ready to start lessons.
Some students start lessons at 2-3 years old and they are prodigy's by time they are 6.
My father told me his parents forced him to play piano as a kid so he learned it for them but not by choice and until the end he never enjoyed playing the piano.
If you want to let your child try it out once or twice to see how it goes and your child looses interest then i would say that is best not to continue on and maybe let him stop taking lessons or switch to another instrument or even just put him or her in sports or cheer leading because you never know what may happen until you try but no one likes to do anything against there will.
who knows, maybe later down the line they will change their mind and like it.
i have even been in bands with friends who have played music since they were 6 and they they grew up, settled down and wont touch an instrument now
When will I start to see results?
Based on how much your child practices on his own and has a desire to learn is basically how quick he will progress.
some learn more in a night than others in a decade because some have the desire to learn and others just don't really care as much to learn so quick and they just kinda end up tinkering with it for how ever long.
within a month from playing the guitar i personally started seeing an improvement and my finger tips stopped hurting so much.
i try to go at the pace of the student to make them feel comfortable more than anything
