Instruments: Trumpet Trombone Saxophone Clarinet Drums Tuba

Ever since high school, I have enjoyed teaching other students. In college, I would travel to nearby schools to tutor middle and high school instrumental students. My first job out of college was teaching at a charter school where I saw all the students in the school for 9 week periods.

Instruments: Piano Drums Keyboard

Beginner students of any age will be playing music with the band during the first lesson!   Although my curriculum is deep-seated in good technique, I believe it is important for students to develop fluidity and expressiveness from the very beginning.  I am an accomplished keyboard player and utilize this skill to accompany my drum set students while they play grooves and lesson exercises so they can understand how it all "goes together".
