Instruments: Piano Voice Ukulele
I began teaching private lessons about four years ago. Originally I used it as a means to practice teaching but I fell in love with the process and have continued ever since. I have taught at various music studios as an in-studio instructor and also as an in-home instructor. It is my goal to make each lesson enjoyable for the students. I like to keep a balance between classical repertoire and technique while allowing the student to branch out into the realm of popular music if they choose. Read More
Instruments: Piano Drums Mallet Percussion Orchestral Percussion Conga Latin Percussion
I began teaching privately and working with area high school marching bands during college in 2002. After graduation, I taught public school before transitioning to another job in the music industry. I've continued to teach privately in my church studio and students homes for the past 7 and a half years. Regular practice and lesson consistency shows how fast students can progress. My biggest goal is to assure my students the excitement when playing their instrument. Read More

I am a very supportive and caring teacher who is very passionate about music and helping my students reach their musical goals. Ive been studying and performing music for twenty one years, beginning at the Westchester Conservatory of New York and then onto Mannes the New School of Music Precollege honors program. I attended Lawrence University where I received my Bachelor of Music in performance. During my time at Lawrence I studied classical cello, classical and jazz voice, and improvisatory music performance. Read More
Instruments: Piano Violin
I began playing the violin and piano when I was 4 years old. My mother was a piano teacher for over 30 years with contagious passion for music and her students, so with training in perfect pitch, sight-reading, and other musicianship skills, I began performing solo and in ensembles. I soon became an assistant teacher, beginning my own private lessons. Since elementary school, I've been a part of the church choir, school band, and orchestra. Read More

What musical accomplishments are you most proud of?
Before relocating to Carlsbad California, I served as Worship Pastor at Living Water Community Church in Harrisburg Pennsylvania. I was successful in bridging the gap between the sudden departure of permanent worship pastor and the hiring of another. During this interim assignment, I introduced a more balanced selection of worship music more reflective of the diversity within the congregation.
In addition, last May, I directed an ensemble that provided the music for a play: "A Warm Heart of Steel". This play was set in Pittsburg between 1968 and 1973. We, therefore covered music of Sam Cooke, Aretha Franklin, James Brown, Donny Hathaway, and Lena Horne.
Did you have a teacher that inspired you to go into music? How did they inspire you?
There was not a particular teacher that inspired me. However, there were people in my community of whom I admired. For example, my cousin Larry, whom I idolized played for the church as I was growing up. More than the music, I admired the role he played in commanding the attention of the choir and congregation. My first musical mentor was Mr. Thomas Goodson, who was a jazz organist and member of our church. In a traditional Baptist congregation, he was infusing jazz chords over the rather straight hymnal renditions that we sang.
Why did you choose your primary instrument?
I did not choose the piano, it was chosen for me. My father was a diesel mechanic on tugboats in New York Harbor during World War II. He spent many weekends on shore in the barracks with no entertainment. In fact, the navy provided a piano in the barracks but no one could play. Therefore, he determined that upon leaving the service and beginning his family, his children would have piano lessons. I only discovered this promise to himself one Saturday morning when a big truck pulled up to our home and they unloaded a Story & Clark piano. We were in piano lessons the following week.
What advice do you have about practicing effectively?
I recommend parents set a timer for a specific time; not less than ten minutes per day, but not more than an hour. Follow the teachers guidelines for what to accomplish so that the time will be effective. Plan a time that there is relative calm in the home and limit the distractions that a TV or other noises might create. I also advise that no pressure is put on the student if family schedules does not permit practice every day. Don't sweat it. We do not want the thought of practice to become drudgery.
