Instruments: Guitar Voice Drums Mallet Percussion Latin Percussion Electric Guitar Djembe Classical Guitar Acoustic Guitar
I moved to the Berkshire Mountains of Western Massachusetts in early 2015 and relocated back to Dallas/Ft. Worth in late 2017. For the past several years, I've been blessed with the opportunity to perform across the country and beyond, to facilitate interactive music workshops, to teach private lessons, and to provide original music and sound design for documentaries, films, animations, and more. In 2014, I initiated my solo project Starseed, featuring original electronic compositions infused with guitar and vocals. Read More

My teaching style is just like most I think. I don't rush with the students. Always trying to go slow and make sure the students understands everything. I've gotten pretty good at figuring out when the students get what I'm trying to teach. If I feel like I'm going to fast I'll stop think about what I'm doing and slow down. It's easy to talk to fast and rush as a teacher because I've taught so many students. Read More
Instruments: Drums Mallet Percussion Orchestral Percussion
My style of teaching is simple, I want the student to have fun with it, but be challenged at the same time. I always start my lessons by finding out why the student wants to learn the drums, to me this is very important because it allows me to figure out the best way to teach the student, as well as keep it interesting for them. Nothing is more important to me than seeing a student reach his or her personal goals on the instrument so, I do my best to help them accomplish them. Read More
Instruments: Piano Drums
My teaching dates back to my high school days, as I began teaching middle school during my off period. I have been succesfully and consistently teaching students in my studio for 6+ years. Read More
Instruments: Drums
I've been a drummer for 22 years, and a teacher for going on 2 now. I mostly travel and do private lessons, but can accommodate any situation! I played in symphonic band throughout college, along with being in multiple different projects in multiple genres. I played my first gig at the age of 12, and I just love playing drums. I started out on snare, then got a kit for my 7th birthday, and I never looked back! Read More

What do you think is the hardest thing to master on your instrument?
Besides the actual strength and flexibility of the embouchure, as well as general playing endurance, the hardest thing by far to master is your nerves. I've known so many students, as well as fellow musicians who, no matter how hard they train, are torn apart by their own nerves. Regular performances in different environments, in front of an audience, be it family, friends or strangers, will greatly alleviate this. I liken it to an emptying of the adrenal gland. The more often you empty it, the less adrenaline will be available to make your nerves go haywire in the next performance.
Have any of your students won awards or been selected for special honors? How have they succeeded?
I've had very many students over the years. I've had students get 1's in solos or ensembles. I've had students reach region and area in contests. I've had students get first chair or become principle trombone in their orchestra. I've had students pass their auditions to get into music school. I've had students excel in improvisation in their jazz ensembles. What makes me most proud is the fact that I've had so many students stay in music. Participating in music creates a unity and happiness of belonging. Creating that happiness in someone is very fulfilling.
What musical accomplishments are you most proud of?
I've performed at a sold out Hollywood Bowl. I've performed sold out shows with many artists I've been fans of since I was a child. I've performed in front of artists I've been a fan of since I was a child, with them standing right in front of me, watching me while I've performed. I've excelled in areas and performed in places other people I've performed with have been too afraid to. I've never let fear or nerves stop me. Most of all, I'm proud to be friends with, performed with, and be on an equal and first name basis with many stars I've admired growing up.
Why did you choose your primary instrument?
I started on cornet when I was 8 years old, in my closet, no lessons. It was given to me. When I was 11 years old a friend of my older sister's graduated from high school. He came over to my house and gave me his trombone. Why me? Maybe he liked my sister and wanted to impress her. To me, it was a light from heaven. It was beat up, in fact he used to beat on the bell with a drumstick when he was in the stands at football games. My father and I took it to the music store and got all of the dents taken out of it for $50. When I opened up the case and saw it, I knew what I wanted to do for the rest of my life. That trombone was recorded for The New York Times website a few years back. The recording won an Emmy.
