Instruments: Piano Voice
I use art songs that will guide singers through these areas of their voices, and will often allow the singer to bring in material of their own choosing within reason. At any age I put a large focus on how to practice outside of lessons. Lessons are for learning new vocal exercises and exploring new facets of the voice in a safe space. Outside of lessons are where substantial growth occurs. Read More
Instruments: Voice Trumpet
For beginner trumpeters, I typically start with Hal Leonards Essential Elements and then slowly transition into solo repertoire that suits their skill set as they make it into the intermediate level. As advanced players, we will focus on refining skills with drill books as well as work on standards in solo repertoire. For my vocal students, we will always work on range and flexibility exercises as well as vocal repertoire from multiple genres that suit the skill level of the singer. Read More
Instruments: Piano Guitar Voice Violin Cello
I try to strike a balance between music lessons being serious and being fun. I expect my students to practice almost every day and I expect that the parents will be part of keeping them accountable for scheduling that practicing. Lessons are a combination of learning technical skills and learning songs, which usually are mostly classical songs with a few contemporary songs thrown in for motivation. Read More
Instruments: Guitar Voice
I have been working and teaching kids since I was a kid myself. Upon graduating High School, I began attending Saint Paul College with the loose plan of becoming a "Sign Language Interpreter". I took American Sign Language Classes Level 1-4 and Deaf Culture, all of which worked to sharpen my already-clear communication skills. I discovered that becoming an interpreter was not exactly "my calling" and began expanding my degree to study Child Development and work with children. Read More
Instruments: Piano Voice Trumpet Trombone Euphonium French Horn Tuba
I am very passionate about many different types of music including both vocal music and Instrumental Music. I have a strong background being trained classically while also performing musical theatre and pop on different stages. I graduated Luther College in 2014 with a Double Major in Voice and Trumpet and a Triple Minor in Choral/Instrumental Music Education and Theatre and I have had the opportunity to teach around the world in places like Waterloo, Belgium and Vienna, Austria.

Instruments: Voice Saxophone Clarinet
I have been instructing since I was 17. I have found that, as a performer, my craft only deepens as I develop as an education as well. I have been fulltime since college and have loved every minute. With my diverse background in multi styles I find that I bring a fresh and unique approach to music education. My primary goal is to bring together the technical element to grow in fundamentals, intermixed with fun! Read More
Instruments: Guitar Electric Guitar Acoustic Guitar
When did you decide to become a professional musician? Was it a gradual decision or was there a defining moment for you?
I knew I wanted to be a professional musician when I was at my first Battle of the Bands in high school. I saw those guys up on stage and said "yea, I want to do that."
Does music run in your family? Tell us a little about your musical family members.
Yes, my family definitely encouraged me to play around on all sorts of instruments while I was growing up. From trumpet, drums, and piano, to guitar and singing.
If you play more than one instrument, how did you decide to start playing the second? (Or 3rd, 4th, 5th, etc)!
I started to listen to Australian singer songwriters and really started to love the sound of the Didgeridoo, which is an instrument native to the aboriginal cultures in Australia. I started to learn how to play it and have been hooked ever since.
What is your favorite style/genre of music to play and why?
I really like bluesy funk. It is high energy, danceable, and feels good. I also really like folk/songwriting because of the stories and messages told through the songs.
What is your dream piece to perform and why?
I want to play at the Fillmore in San Francisco because so many bands that I love and adore have played there. It is such a historic spot!
What do you think is the hardest thing to master on your instrument?
Staying relaxed yet focused while playing. It can be challenging to not tense up while playing, and it can be challenging to not over think while playing.
What musical accomplishments are you most proud of?
Forming a touring band that has shared the stage with many great bands and music artists! I am also proud of cutting two self produced EP albums.
Did you have a teacher that inspired you to go into music? How did they inspire you?
My family inspired me to play on instruments as a young boy.
Why did you choose your primary instrument?
The moment I picked up a guitar I was hooked. I just really like the strings, wood, and mobility of the instrument. It is a very compatible instrument for composing music and songs
When will I start to see results?
Results can occur after one lesson. Consistent practice is important for maintaining and excelling skills.
What does a normal practice session look like for you?
I warm up and play first. Then I stretch my hands and fingers. Then I break open a practice routine that I have been working on and getting comfortable with for about a week. Next I practice something new to keep me pushing forward.
How do I know if my child is ready to start lessons?
If they have picked up an instrument and express consistent interest in it. Maybe they have been playing but are getting discouraged or uninspired due to a "plateau" in knowledge or ideas to practice and play.
What advice do you have about practicing effectively?
Do it every day (or 5-6 days a week), in a place where you can focus, and do it for an achievable amount of time. Bite size practice sessions are key. Setting a timer is very helpful. Once you get comfortable with a certain amount of practice time, start to extend your time.
If you weren't a musician what do you think you'd be doing instead?
If I wasn't a musician I would be working with plants, as an organic farmer or in a greenhouse. And I would also make art in some other form like painting.
