Instruments: Piano Voice
For beginning piano students I typically start with Faber's piano adventure series--I typically have students work through the lesson, performance, and theory books while providing them with additional repertoire on the side (pop, disney, classical pieces etc.) For voice students, I typically spend about a third of the lesson working on technique--proper breathing, posture, extending range, working on tone quality etc. Then the rest of the lesson is spent working on solo song repertoire.

Instruments: Piano
My earliest teaching experience was in my senior year of high school. While in college, I was required to do some student teaching, and this gave me a tremendous amount of insight into how best to approach being a music instructor. Since graduating, most of my musical experience has come from playing and directing choirs at churches, schools, and theatres, but I have continued teaching and enjoy learning different methods to share with my students.

Instruments: Piano Flute Piccolo
I began teaching flute lesson when I was a sophomore in high school in 2010 by helping middle school students, as well as other high school students, to prepare for band auditions. I taught throughout my time in college as well. I took a short break after graduating with my master's but have since returned to teaching in the Rockwall area. I have also taught in larger group settings, working with marching band flute sections and flute choir. Read More
Instruments: Piano Violin Viola
Over my years of teaching, I have developed my own method for beginning students that caters to the individual student's needs and learning styles. Once the student has grasped the basic fundamentals, I start to introduce solo repertoire appropriate to their level, as well as focusing on learning proper technique. I believe that a very important part of my role as teacher is to guide the student on the route that they want to go. Read More
Instruments: Piano Voice
My choirs have performed at Carnegie Hall two times, Disneyworld, New Orleans, State Capital, and many other locations winning UIL and other state, local and national competitions. As a singer I have performed with the Fort Worth Opera, in San Francisco, Germany, Austria and our Nation's Capital. My students have won UIL state and local competitions, piano competitions and many college scholarships. Now - I am looking forward to your successes, goals and dreams and how I can help you to achieve all that you want to - as a musician. Read More
Instruments: Piano Cello Music Keyboard
I started teaching when I was an undergrad in college. I've taught students of different ages with different personalities. I found it important for myself as a teacher to change my teaching styles according to each student. Using the vocabulary or description that the student understands and give them what they need/want is a better way for them to learn. There's no short cut to success. If you want to learn an instrument, regular practice and lessons are required. Read More
Instruments: Guitar Synthesizer Ukulele Electric Guitar Classical Guitar Acoustic Guitar
Do you use specific teaching methods or books? (Ex: Alfred, Bastion, Suzuki, Hal Leonard) Why did you choose them if you did?
For beginning students I use the Mel Bay Guitar Method. Mel Bay books have provided reliable teaching methods for many decades. They are clearly written and easy to follow. I find these books helpful in building a strong foundation for growing a young student's technical proficiency. They are written in standard notation which improves sight-reading and helps train the student's ear. I will supplement the Mel Bay Method with popular songs the student is interested in. The goal is to get the student performing the songs he/she wants to play while building fundementals adaptable to all styles of music.
What do you think is the hardest thing to master on your instrument?
The hardest thing to master on the instrument is musicality and instinct. They are difficult things to teach. You can play the right notes but why does Hendrix sound like he does playing the very same notes on the same instrument? Listening properly is not an easy thing for a student to understand. It's more than playing the right notes within the correct tempo. It's all the space in-between the notes. It's all the time in-between the beats. Touch, feel and grace are very difficult things to accomplish on an instrument. Mastering the instrument requires focus, dedication and time.
Have any of your students won awards or been selected for special honors? How have they succeeded?
I have had students go on to major in music in college - including at the Berklee School of Music in Boston. I've had a student graduate with a Masters degree from Webster University. Many of my students have formed bands and performed live while also writing and recording their own songs. One of my students signed a major record contract with his band and toured the country. Others have accomplished smaller goals which brought them just as much joy. Becoming accomplished guitarists who can comfortably perform their favorite songs.
What musical accomplishments are you most proud of?
I am most proud of writing my own songs and producing my own records. They represent my stories. My take on life. Having the opportunity to travel and perform these songs live is something I'm so grateful for. Seeing people at a concert reacting to something I've recorded or seeing people react online to something I've written is touching. Traveling the world to play music is something I'm very proud of. I'm also proud to live and work in Nashville. It's an honor to be a part of this music community - to be a part of recording sessions with the greatest musicians and producers on the planet.
