I am a passionate and motivated musician and teacher. I started playing guitar back in 1996. Over the years, my passion for music and love for guitar allowed me to play in numerous bands, covering all forms of music. I later decided to study music under the finest musicians this region has to offer. This is where I honed my skills in Jazz Guitar, Classical Guitar, Jazz Bass, Jazz Piano, Jazz and Classical Composition, Jazz Arranging, Jazz and Classical Pedagogy, Jazz and Classical Conducting, Latin Jazz, Gypsy Jazz, Modern Jazz, Large Jazz Ensemble, Guitar Ensemble, Live Sound and Audio Recording.

Every stage is different. With beginners, you want them to learn the notes first, then the chords, the harder chords..etc. With intermediate players, you can begin teaching them songs and giving them songs to work on. Advanced players is all about finding the right tone and the right sounds, most likely helping by providing guitar work with them. It all depends on the student! But I know that for children, you start with the basics and work your way up! Read More

My teaching style is very process oriented. Goals are set, but are the natural outgrowth of well developed plans and consistent effort. I strive to inspire my students with the passion for playing and the act of making music, rather than the goals of perfection or winning a competition. Personally, music has always been a way for me to understand and enrich my life in more meaningful ways than I ever could have imagined. Read More
Instruments: Piano
I carefully watch and listen to my students' progress. If the material selection seems hard, I encourage him/her to take such material at a later time. Depending on the age of the student, I had students from those who looked up to me for guidance of music to those who set their own music goals. As a result, I adapted myself to the level and age of my students wishes and goals. Read More
Instruments: Piano Voice
For beginner students I start with the basic for both piano and voice. For voice we start with breathing, pitch, and starting a healthy techinque and proper places to sing from. For piano I follow the Alfred's serious and begin with music theory as well. Once my students advance we begin with new solo repertoire and more advance theory and sight reading. The more advance the student become the more intense and difficult the material will become. Read More

How do I know if my child is ready to start lessons?
Your child is ready to start learning music as soon as they express interest in music. This can be as early as 3 years old. Students can start learning piano or recorder as early as 3 or 4 years old. For brass instruments if a child expresses interest they can start as early as age 8 or 9 years old. For all music students a basic familiarity with the piano keyboard is a great asset.
When will I start to see results?
Students should see results after one or two lessons, and will continue to grow and flourish as time passes. The best indicator early on is that they are motivated to practice at home. For younger students parental guidance may be re required
Did you have a teacher that inspired you to go into music? How did they inspire you?
As the 5th of six children in my family, my older sibling started playing music when I was very young, and since we had a Piano in the house, I would often play. I started Piano lessons in 2nd or 3rd grade. My High school Band director was a great inspiration for me, and after a couple of years in band I know that I wanted to be a conductor. I could see myself in his shoes saying a lot of the things he told the band. Prior to that I had always wanted to be a Math professor which was inspired by my favorite uncle who was a math professor. Although I have two Music degrees, I never lost my interest in math, and am a certified teacher of both Music and Math!
Why did you choose your primary instrument?
I started piano lessons in elementary school, and my older sister played the Trombone. She encouraged me to play the French Horn, and I eventually majored in French Horn Performance in college.
What musical accomplishments are you most proud of?
I have a few accomplishments for which I am proud. I was conductor for a small chamber ensemble in Vienna, Austria and had several performances at various venues around town, the pinnacle was performing at the Vienna Konzerthaus, which is the home of the Vienna Symphony Orchestra. Another accomplishment I am proud of is that almost all of the brass students I have had since moving to Ann Arbor, have been 1st chair in the top band at their high school by tier junior or senior year.
Have any of your students won awards or been selected for special honors? How have they succeeded?
Most of my students have consistently relieved a top rating at the Solo and Ensemble Festivals. I encourage all of my students to compete in both Solo and Ensemble. The excellence of my students is mainly due to their solid practicing and desire to improve. The most important thing I contribute is a solid knowledge of music rudiments and theory, and an insistence on understanding musicality and artistry when playing. . I also continue to challenge my students to improve and to play/perform at their own respective best.
