I have had a passion since I was 6 years old for music, I recieved B.S in Vocal Performance and Pedagogy from Central Michigan University and an Associates in Dance from University of Michigan. During which times I also performed with Flint Symphony Orchestra, Detroit Symphony Orchestra, Lansing Symphony Orchestra, Eastern Michigan Symphony, and the Symphony Orchestra of Leon. I have received the level of Miestre or Master in Capoiera (African Brazilian Dance Marital Art) because of this training I am a Master Djembe Player. Read More
Instruments: Piano
My favorite thing about teaching is that no two students are the same; and no two lessons with the same student are either! It is so important to establish a goal for a student to work towards, so that they know what they're practicing for. Not huge goals either that are months away, but goals that can be accomplished between each lesson. The best part of the job is seeing students get excited for music, and being able to grow in such a way that they're able to put their personality into their performances. Read More
Instruments: Piano Guitar Voice Trumpet Trombone Drums Bass Guitar Organ Synthesizer Double Bass Euphonium Tuba Orchestral Percussion Keyboard Electric Guitar Classical Guitar Acoustic Guitar
For each instrument, I have the same basic approach: discover what they like, assess what they can do, and begin with the fundamentals. If a student is more advanced, I still like to spend time on fundamentals at the beginning anyway to see if we can fill in any foundational weakness that the student may have. For each instrument, I also have a wide array of repitoire that I give students that zero-in on technical challenges a student will be presented with. 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
Instruments: Piano Voice
My teaching style is fun and effective. I find that a huge percentage of issues people face are themselves, so I employ fun techniques to overcome obstacles. An example would be a student I currently have who gets tense as she approaches higher notes- I will have her toss a ball back and forth as a distraction technique and it's amazing that a beautiful, free high note come right out!

Instruments: Piano Guitar Violin Viola Bass Guitar Synthesizer Banjo Ukulele Mandolin Lute Electric Violin Fiddle Electric Guitar Classical Guitar Acoustic Guitar
I have a passion for music, and I play a lot of gigs, and I can see that it inspires students. I work on student's strengths first, to give them a sense of accomplishment. I use audio recording during lessons to make an actual creation that students can share with friends and family. This also helps the student hear what they sound like, and to track their progress from week to week. 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.
