Instruments: Voice
My teaching style is simple and basic. I encourage them to bring water and recording devices. I remind them to keep a positive attitude before we start. We always begin with breathing exercises, scale exercises, warm ups and resonance strengthen and vocal agility. I encourage them to understand how important it is to use your diaphragm to transition in the head voice for great tones and control. I teach the students how to use the resonance to increase tone and volume and use the head voice for less tone and volume. Read More
Instruments: Voice
I believe that each singer is unique, and that teaching styles are a great guideline but can also be a limit on a student's creativity. I believe in modifying my approach with each student based on their individual needs and desires. With children, the idea is cultivating a LOVE for music, and teaching them basics like pitch matching, rhythm, theory, etc. For adults, we can go further by learning about musicality, character development, emoting, and truly creating MUSIC, along with the basics.

In order to communicate musical ideas most effectively, I feel it is equally as essential to develop the students ear as well as their reading abilities.Each student will receive a personally customized work packet that includes sheet music, worksheets, and possibly audio/video samples. The packet implements training techniques exercises that will develop the students reading skills and ear-training, along with basic theory.The work packets also include sheet music to songs chosen by the students, in order allow them to apply their techniques in ways that are self-fulfilling.

My passion for sharing knowledge begin during my time as high school tuba section leader, which led to Senior band president. Assisting my peers so we could sound better via musical corrections, this would build our confidence levels and the moral throughout the ensemble. I furthered my passion for music at Berklee College of Music, where I studied various aspects, methods, and approaches to educating someone about the art of music. Read More

Every student has a unique journey. My goal as a teacher is always to build understanding for my students, and never utilize methods that are 'tricking' anyone into success. I want to give my students the tools to begin finding success on their own and grow independently of my teaching. I utilize systematic approaches to building progress, giving exercises that the student can take home and practice daily to ensure rapid progression. Read More

I am versed in all things theatrical, and have been acting in plays and musicals throughout the Atlanta metro area for over 10 years. In addition to my theatrical pursuits, I have been singing and playing the piano from a young age. I graduated from Reinhardt University in 2016 with a degree in Theatre after studying under experienced professors and musicians from around the country, including Broadway pianist Julie Bearden Carver, and professional Chicagoan actor David Nisbet.

When did you decide to become a professional musician? Was it a gradual decision or was there a defining moment for you?
My decision to become a professional musician was a funny combination of gradual and also at a defining moment. I have played and practiced my whole life, and it was always my top extra-curricular activity. I always loved it and at various points tried to envision a life as a professional musician. It seemed, in many ways, like an obvious choice. However, when I went to college, I started a dual-degree program in music and my other passion, computer programming. The program was structured such that I completed my music studies first, then switched to computers. But when it came time to switch, I had already found work playing professionally and I realized that my interest in computers as a career had waned. Even knowing that a career in computer programming would be stable and lucrative, I decided to leave it behind and go full force into building a music career. And I have never looked back! It would have been easier to follow the computer path, since it is a path well-traveled. But forging my own path and being able to keep music in the foreground of my life is far more rewarding!
Does music run in your family? Tell us a little about your musical family members.
Music is a family activity for me, and one that constantly brings us together. In fact, my brothers and I just recorded a cover of The Beatles' "When I'm Sixty-Four" for my mother, complete with new lyrics about her and three-part vocal harmonies to boot. All five of us play and we love to talk about it and play together!
If you play more than one instrument, how did you decide to start playing the second? (Or 3rd, 4th, 5th, etc)!
While piano is my primary instrument, I also play trumpet. I wanted to be in band in school, so when we started in 6th grade I gave trumpet a shot and liked it! I practiced both instruments nearly every day throughout middle and high school before I decided to focus more on piano in college.
What does a normal practice session look like for you?
First of all, my 'normal' practice session has changed over time. It is not the same today as it was when I was 10, 15, or 20. These days, I practice a lot of difficult classical repertoire, so much of my time is spent on those pieces. I start by picking the hardest spots and working on those, then perhaps I will play through the whole piece to measure my progress and to maintain the easier parts as well. I also spend a lot of time practicing sight reading, since my professional work requires a high level of accurate reading. I will choose a different composer or genre every day for reading, which helps keep things fun and new!
When will I start to see results?
It varies. The more frequent, consistent, and methodical your practicing is, the more quickly you will see results. Patience is a virtue! Some areas of musicianship may take longer to show results than others. Additionally, some results are harder to see than others. For example, progress in scales or a difficult passage are more obvious than progress in sightreading.
What advice do you have about practicing effectively?
Don't just start at the beginning of a piece and struggle your way through it. To practice effectively, zoom in on the spots that give you the most trouble. It is far easier to master one or two measures at a time than to tackle the whole piece at once. And once you can play that spot correctly, repeat repeat repeat! Don't practice until you get it right; practice until you can't get it wrong.
Why did you choose your primary instrument?
Piano is my primary instrument, and I chose it for several reasons. It is one of the most versatile instruments on the planet - every dance hall, theater, school, church, and even many homes have pianos in them, and they can be used in nearly any style or ensemble. It is the instrument of composers and conductors as well because it allows them to hear a piece holistically. But most importantly, I found piano to be the most fun and challenging. I never get bored! When you find the instrument that does that for you, stick with it.
How do I know if my child is ready to start lessons?
I usually don't begin lessons with young children until they can read. Learning to read music is very much like learning to read text, so having that baseline is extremely helpful. The ability to sit and follow directions for 30 minutes is also very helpful!
