Instruments: Voice
I believe that each students is at a different level so you have to tailor everything based on that. I believe that reading music is extremly important in the development of singing as well as enjoying music. I believe that each student should know key signatures as well as what notes are on and off the staff. For all students I focus on the following: Breath, Correct Vowel Placement. I believe that if you have solid breath foundations then you can produce purer vowels and in turn if you have purer vowels then you have longer lasting and easier breath production. Read More

I have been a music teacher since my college days working with kids in a university program, as well as being a TA and teaching adults. I have had students in my own studio off and on when I haven't been performing or being a music director and elementary school teacher. I try to meet students where they are whether it's a beginner or even someone who considers themselves tone deaf and to encourage them to honestly try, give it a real go. Read More
Instruments: Piano Guitar Voice Violin
I do my best to tailor my style to each students specific needs and goals. In general, I am a very laidback and patient teacher. My students recieve clear and achievable goals at the end of each of their lessons to work on while they are practicing during the week. This enables students to be able to really see their own progress as the practice. I also believe in music lessons being an enjoyable experience for students so I include students in making the decision for what pieces they would like to learn. Read More

Have any of your students won awards or been selected for special honors? How have they succeeded?
Most of my students just wanted to get a little more knowledge on what they were doing on their instrument. I have gotten many compliments from music teachers because they said they can hear a difference in the students who were taking lessons. Just like any other activity kids move on from music. What I like to stress to any of my students is unlike ballet, cheerleading, football, etc... playing music is something you can do the rest of your life. It doesn't have to be on a professional level. You can play in a community band until you are 80 plus years old. Are you going to be doing ballet, cheerleading or football at 80?
What musical accomplishments are you most proud of?
The music accomplishment I am most proud of is learning oboe and reed making. I started out as a sax player and didn't start oboe until I was about 22 years old. It was probably the hardest thing I have ever done musically I didn't really see results for a year but my college professor told me to stick with it. He was a wonderful instructor. He explained how when learning a second instrument you progress quickly then plateau for several months because your musical knowledge has caught up to your current technical level. It took me year to find my center of pitch on oboe. Not to mention mastering reed making which is a never ending labor of love. My professor encouraged me to join the college wind ensemble and any band that would tolerate me lol. After retiring from the military and joining a local ensemble made up of school teachers and professional players, I played second oboe. The first rehearsal the conductor asked for a Bb from both of the oboes. We were so in tune the band let out a collective, "Oooohh!" At that moment I knew 16 years of study and performance really paid off.
Why did you choose your primary instrument?
When my son Ruben was 7, I took him to the local music store while I was buying reeds. The store owner is a percussionist and had a drum kit set up for kids to bang on to keep them busy. He told Ruben it was okay to play. While Ruben was playing and I was chatting with the store owner he mentioned, "He has a nice touch, most kids come in and bang on the drums. Ruben isn't doing that." I decided to get him lessons with an excellent local drum teacher. Ruben's teacher has commented that he has accomplished things at seven years old that his adult students have trouble with. I believe the instrument chooses you. Kind of like in Harry Potter when he was choosing a wand. When it came to saxophone, it just kind of spoke to me.
