I believe that the first step towards building proficiency in an instrument is having fun with it. I strive to make the lesson space one that promotes positivity, experimentation and excitement - with these as a foundation we can make the hard parts more enjoyable! I take notes on each lesson and have a plan for the next one in mind. However, I always enjoy following a direction that the student is interested in and can cater lessons to personal goals however ambitious or modest. Read More

My lessons are designed to fit each student's level and area of interest. For example, if a student wants to learn how to play blues piano, I'll assign him exercises to compliment learning that idiom, i.e. scales, chords and rhythm patterns. people learn best when they are interested in at that moment. I use the same philosophy teaching drums and trumpet. Specific methods are tailored to the student's current ability and age. Read More

I believe anyone has the ability to learn music. I feel it is my duty to help my students discover their own musical path. It is my passion to show you, you have the ability to overcome any obstacles you may face in music. On May 1st I graduated from Weber State University with my Bachelors in K-12 Music Education. I got the chance to be instructed by great minds like Viktor Uzur (known worldwide for the Richter/Uzur Duo) and work along side talented students like Fan Ya Lin (pianist with a professorship at Julliard).

I've loved teaching since I first tried it in high school, when I mentored my own friends in the art of drumming. It's the perfect gig; I get to nerd out every day about the musical things that I'm passionate about with my students! Since graduating from the University of Miami with a Bachelor of Music degree in Studio Music and Jazz / Drum Set Performance, I've also kept busy performing at SXSW, Capitol Hill Block Party, Bumbershoot, Treefort, BAMF! and numerous Florida-based festivals.

What advice do you have about practicing effectively?
Set reasonable, realistic, and attainable goals. Learning and playing guitar is challenging. If you are frustrated, or not motivated, you are more likely to quit. Having a good teacher is one step in the process. Create a positive learning environment. Listen to music and practice the parts, techniques, and study the theory that applies to the music that you are passionate about. If you set your goals too high then you are likely to get frustrated. Be patient, but work every day, and be proud of the accomplishemets that you make everyday on the instrument.
How do I know if my child is ready to start lessons?
If a young person is interested in music, listens to music, and has experessed interest in learning a musical instrument then that means that they can benefit from lessons. In my experience, the first lessons are a good way for a child to decide which instrument, and what style of music, is right for them. The first music lessons, might be very effective, and the student will learn quickly. It might also be a learning experience, that teaches the student valuable lessons such as discipline, and a strong work ethic. The student will benefit when thay discover an instrument that they enjoy, and a style of music that they love to study and perform.
When will I start to see results?
Results are attained by working hard and staying focused. If you lose your focus it easy to get frustrated and quit. Playing an instrument is difficult. Through practice, a supportive environment, and good instruction, students improve. In some cases, the results are dramatic. Once a student has the right teacher, the right lesson plan, and is studying the right instrument and music, they will advance. The more that they study and practice, the better they will get. It can a take couple of years, or more to achieve the desired results.
Did you have a teacher that inspired you to go into music? How did they inspire you?
All of my teachers inspired me. Also, many other guitarists that I played with and worked with inspired me. Teachers spent extra time trying to explain things, or make sure that I was doing my best made a difference. If someone had more skill at one particular techinique, then I was inspired to meet with them and learn as much as I could from them. Other times I spent a few months studying with someone or attending a seminar. I was inspired by accomplished guitarists who also taught other guitarists through their skill and talent.
