Instruments: Piano Guitar Voice Violin
I am a fun loving and patient instructor who enjoys seeing my passion for music spread to different people. In 2012 I earned a Bachelors in Psychology with a minor in music from Northern Arizona University, and went on to complete a Masters degree in Music Therapy from Arizona State University. I have experience performing in academic orchestras, choirs, and guitar ensembles, as well as with song writing and performing in local bands. Read More

When it comes to strategies regarding teaching I use many methods. I usually will start students understanding the fundamentals of music literacy. In order to achieve the introductory points of this we will work out of a method book like a Hal Leonard Beginner Guitar Method 1. We will understand the importance of understanding how to count rhythms and read pitches correctly. I also focus highly on the correct techniques of the instrument in order to avoid bad habits in the future. Read More
Instruments: Piano Guitar Classical Guitar
We start with fundamentals of music theory, ear training, and composition. We find the songs and styles you want to learn and then make them make sense, through small assignments, that build into the finished product. If you can see the shapes on the guitar and subdivide the beat into equal parts, we can start to play the tunes you like. I a do not believe in slow progress. i believe you can learn and improve consistently, while having fun. Read More

I started playing the piano in college and have learned to play many instruments in my career. I was an Elementary school teacher for 20 years teaching music, band, English Language Arts, Science, and History. I guess you could say I've had a great deal of experience with children as well as adults and still enjoy working with kids in my studio. I have a tattoo on my arm that says, "Music is my Nature" and I guess that says it all for me. Read More

However, I did not stop at just sharing knowledge. One of my students named Recker Eans was interested in playing shows at 6 years old so I taught his parents to manage a social media account for him and to go play out at places such as First Friday on roosevelt row. He quickly gained traction and has now been on Fox News, BBC, and a couple other local news programs. Read More

Originating from East Chicago, IN, I've known since 3rd grade that I wanted to build a career in music. Over the years I've been able to find my niche, and focus on engineering, composing, and playing live. I've recently come to really enjoy teaching. I find pure joy in watching students make even the slightest improvements (provided they practice :). Everyone that I've taught has walked away with a better understanding of music, empowering them to advance in ways they would otherwise not be able to. Read More

I write all my own lesson materials focusing on what the student needs to know to play, understand, and enjoy music to achieve their goals. I have used several method books in the past but find them all limited or focused on styles or technique that is not what the student wants or needs to learn. I can teach from any established method if that is preferred, but instead enjoy challenging the student to understand what music is and how music is played on their chosen instrument, not just to read.

Instruments: Flute Piccolo
Did you have a teacher that inspired you to go into music? How did they inspire you?
My aunt that I lived with in California for a few years had an old flute that she let me use for band in 3rd grade. She was in high school at the time, and was an amazing flautist who I always looked up to. She was the reason I started flute in the first place. Since then, I have had several role models throughout middle and high school as well as college. I feel like I was always under someone's wing, and that made all the difference.
What advice do you have about practicing effectively?
The old adage, "Practice makes perfect" is truly an understatement, which many students discount throughout their musical tutelage. As a teenager taking private lessons and maintaining first chair in a symphonic band, I hated to practice, but knew that was the only way I would grow and hone my skills. Even if a student just plays a few scales and/or a song from their folder for 15 minutes a day, it's so much better than not taking the instrument out of the case at all.
How do I know if my child is ready to start lessons?
If your child is interested in learning an instrument, it's worth getting them lessons sooner rather than later, at least to see if it's really what they want. I lived in southern California at the start of my 3rd grade year, and they started teaching students on instruments in that grade. I started on the flute and fell in love with it. After a few years my family moved us back to Indiana, and they didn't begin any kind of instrumental instruction until middle school, which was the 6th grade. I was very lucky to have started early because it gave me experience. I am an advocate of always learning when there is an interest, not based on school criteria.
When will I start to see results?
I wish I had a crystal ball so I could tell you when you would see tangible results. Unfortunately, that's not how it works. There are students who are very quick learners and move through lessons without a hitch. But that is not always the case. Everyone learns at their own speed. If I see potential and to keep working, I will definitely tell you that your child is progressing in the right direction. Alternatively, if results are not coming at an average pace, or if the student is struggling, I would want to meet with you to evaluate their course and see if there are any alternative options. What I mean by this is the flute may not be the right instrument for them, but another instrument could possibly be a great fit. I would always take the time to work thoroughly with the student to find out their best fit.
