I am enthusiastic about teaching others both how to play and understand the art of music. In 2009 I graduated from North Central University where I truly fell in live with music and gained a passion for learning and performing through both my education and the rich Fine Arts culture in the city of Minneapolis where I studied.

I started teaching in high school when friends would ask me questions about drumming techniques. From this I began taking on elementary age kids and grew to about 10 students a week in New York before leaving for Berklee. I have taught and performed for many Berklee Summer Programs including Basslines, Vocal Workshop, Stage Performance Workshop and Five Week. After graduating Berklee I took on 35 students a week from Jan-June 2013, before working as a musician on Celebrity Cruise Lines. Read More

I'm a very passionate coach and will teach you how to teach yourself. There will be lessons where we will pick a skill you want to learn and you will teach me how to develop that skill. Retention is paramount while learning. I've found that your ability to retain information is dramatically increased if you teach the information to others...as high as 80% (average is 40%), thats double. If I can motivate you to learn and you become passionate about your craft, I can learn from you as well. Read More
