I strive to ignite passion in my students. With passion, a student will be able to express themselves musically in any way they would like through their instrument. By doing so, these students may go out into the real-world and say what they need to say and communicate with other musicians. This will not only develop their musical sense but also will develop their personality and their way of life. Read More

I love to understand fully what draws each student to music and look to keep instruction and practice fun and relaxed. Music is a lifelong passion and I want to create an atmosphere that encourages creativity and a desire to seek out other musicians. My teaching style is not rigid and I am not afraid to experiment to see what each student responds best to. Basic theory and technique are important and emphasized but not at the expense of creativity and fun. Read More
