Instruments: Piano Synthesizer Keyboard
It makes playing the piano even more rewarding. MANY MUSICIANS CAN'T SIGHT READ MUSIC like a trained pianist. Many musicians just use chords and a melody. So its important for a student to also learn chords and melody of songs that the students really like.This helps them to be more flexible in being to work on a solo piece of music or with a group of musician friends.Besides method piano books, I try to find music that the student really likes, that way they feel excited about playing a song that's cool and recognizable.

I'm a full-time musician, writer and producer in Nashville; however I love teaching music so I fit in lessons whenever I can! In 2013 I graduated at the top of my class from Berklee College of Music with Bachelor of Music degree, double majoring in Music Production Engineering and Contemporary Writing Production and minoring in Writing for TV New Media. I moved to Nashville in early 2014 and I've been performing, writing and producing full time ever since. Read More
Instruments: Piano Voice Music Keyboard
My performance experience started at a very young age and consisted of entertaining myself in front of the mirror (at age 2), and creating shows for family. I started doing musicals and concerts at church around age 4 and entered community theatre around age 6. My enthusiasm for the performing arts continued to grow throughout childhood, and my teenage years. I started private Voice lessons at age 16 and studied Musical Theatre at Kent State University for the first two years of college. Read More
Instruments: Piano Keyboard
I have been with Musika in the Nashville/Brentwood area for ten years after a twelve year hiatus from teaching. Before touring as a full-time artist starting in 1998 I had already taught piano and voice for fourteen years in the Los Angeles area. Some of my former students are themselves music teachers and professional musicians. I can give recommendations if need be. I have been a professional musician for over thirty years. Read More
Instruments: Piano Saxophone Flute Clarinet
I love to see kids progress in music and become excited about it!! My teaching style is very paced and hands on. If a student isn't getting something, I like to slow it down until they they do. I'm very complimentary and positive during lessons; this helps the student be confident. I also try to give the student a guideline on how to practice and how to pace themselves throughout this process. Read More

I'm a lifelong teacher. I always knew teaching was what I wanted to do. My first guinea pig was my little brother, who's seven years younger than I. I've always been able to relate to all ages and all types of people. I've taught in a variety of settings: Schools, music stores and my own independent studio. I really enjoy seeing the light bulb go off in a student's head. Read More
Instruments: Piano Guitar Voice Violin Viola Fiddle
I am a positive and dedicated musician and music teacher who has a unique background of formal classical training and experience in various other genres. I have 12 years of classical training on the violin, have taught private violin and viola lessons to more than 300 students over the course of 6 summers through the Hempfield School District, participated in the NAfME All-Eastern Orchestra, performed for a year as the bluegrass and old-time fiddler in the Joe Hillman Band (Philadelphia, PA), performed as the celtic fiddler in The Ogham Stones (Lancaster, PA) for one year, and have led my own band for 2 years as a singer, songwriter and guitar player.

What musical accomplishments are you most proud of?
Performing at prestigious concert venues like Royal Albert Hall, Carnegie Hall, World Arena, Pepsi Center, and touring to almost every continent on the earth! I'm also proud that I've worked on my craft to the point where other musicians consider me "A" level player here in Nashville by other touring musicians, producers, and vocalist. I've released 3 jazz albums with original compositions and jazz standards. I am also proud that I was able to serve my country with the USAF Academy Band and having the opportunity to perform all over the USA with them.
Have any of your students won awards or been selected for special honors? How have they succeeded?
I've had several students win awards and scholarships for their performance skills they've developed by studying with me. Many of my students were playing and doing things that I was learning at Berklee College of Music when I was 24 and 4th year as a performance major at Berklee College of Music. Many of my students are traveling all over the world touring, performing in big cities, and working in recording studios in Nashville, Boston, NY, and LA. Many of my students also auditioned and made "ALL STATE" Ensembles.
What do you think is the hardest thing to master on your instrument?
The hardest thing to master on the piano is playing the RH and LH playing completely different parts at the same time. To be able to do this students must practice very slowly with a metronome, counting out loud, and practice hands separate. You practice this very very slowly, and increasing the speed little by little until you can get the music to flow. The hard part about this is that it's not all that much fun to do this type of work, but it's necessary to be able to play the piece up to tempo, and for the music to "flow" naturally with no hesitations or stops.
Another hard thing to master is rhythm. Rhythm is the 1st thing people notice about someones playing. I work very hard in making sure the rhythms are correct, and the students play with a steady tempo without speeding up or slowing down.
Do you use specific teaching methods or books? (Ex: Alfred, Bastion, Suzuki, Hal Leonard) Why did you choose them if you did?
Hal Leonards "Piano Adventures" by Faber & Faber for students age 7 and up, "Piano Prep" by Alfred for students age 5-6, "Piano Literature" by Bastien&Bastien for intermediate to advanced students. I like them because they are evenly paced, fun, and the piano accompaniments are fun, and they teach a variety of styles. I've been using these methods for over 20 years, and student progress through them, and develop into great players. "Piano Adventures" have 5 levels of lesson books, 2 levels of "Adult Piano Adventures". Then I supplement the books with songs that the students want to learn to play.
