Instruments: Saxophone Flute Clarinet
For beginning students I like to start in the Standard of Excellence Series as well as the Rubank Method Books. I also try to allow my students a chance to play something they want at the end of lessons. As my students advance we add in classical pieces as well as jazz, and improvisation. Older students and adults we can fgure out what you want from the lessons. I try to work it so it is enjoyable for you yet not as elementary. The goal is to become advanced enough to create your own music. Read More
Instruments: Trumpet Trombone Saxophone Flute Clarinet
From 1981-1993, I was the music director for URCS, a private school in Long Island, NY. I developed pedagogy and taught the high school band and choir. Since 1985, I have taught private lessons. Many of my students have gone on to be professionals in the industry. I absolutely love seeing my students click with understanding on their faces when they get the next piece of the puzzle they may have been missing regarding their playing. Read More
Instruments: Piano Flute Recorder Piccolo
I first started teaching in college, taking courses in flute pedagogy in 2007, and working privately with local high school students. Since 2011, I have had a regular studio of private flute (and recorder or piccolo) students as well occasional students on other wind instruments and piano. I've also taught a variety of wind and chamber ensembles. I believe that every student is unique and learns best when that individuality is celebrated. Read More
Instruments: Flute Piccolo
To me, music has always been an emotional outlet, so while I do place a large emphasis on having the fundamental skills necessary for performance, I also really value and emphasize musicality. I want students to feel like learning the flute is accessible, and I love seeing them progress at their own pace. I also want students to have ownership of their learning process – if there are songs/skills that they'd like to learn, I'd love to work with them to figure out how they can achieve those goals.

Instruments: Flute
I first picked up a Yamaha flute at my public school in the 5th grade and it changed my life. I traversed conflict-countries carrying only my flute, I was welcomed to cities and performed alongside renowned musicians in places like Havana, Seattle, Ramallah and Beijing. Then, I picked up the pen in college, graduate school, and law school to learn how to organize, operate, and help fund artist-educators share this gift and language with the youth. Read More

My experience in teaching dates back to my time in college, where I coached a few music education majors on the flute. Since then, I have offered my expertise towards community flautists, Emeritus band flute players, and a wide range of percussion and flute students. I am committed to the advancement of my students and feel really encouraged to see them grow and change. From younger to older - beginning, intermediate, or advanced - I will always try my hardest to keep you engaged and moving forward. Read More
Instruments: Voice
How do I know if my child is ready to start lessons?
This is definitely one of the top questions I get from parents. If your child is consistently showing the desire to either sing or play an instrument, then it’s probably a good time to introduce them to a coach. By consistently, I mean for more than a couple of months. Children are fickle so you want to be patient to see if there is a persistence with their passion for a specific instrument.
Why did you choose your primary instrument?
I have been asked this question many times, and my answer is always the same, I didn’t choose my instrument, it chose me! I started singing at a very early age. My mom was the first one to notice my affinity for music and singing when I was five years old. One day while riding with her in our car, I started singing a song on the radio, and then started singing the harmony parts to the chorus. She immediately stopped the car, turned down the radio and asked me to sing a song with her. I can’t remember which one it was, but she then asked me to sing the harmony with her and I did. From that moment forward, she lovingly cultivated my passion for singing and the rest is history!
When will I start to see results?
You will start to see results after the very first vocal lesson guaranteed. The method that I coach is nothing short of incredible. It made me a more powerful, controlled, dynamic and conditioned vocalist, and it will do the very same thing for you!
What advice do you have about practicing effectively?
The advice I give all of my students for practicing effectively is One: Make sure you are practicing at least five days a week and optimally around the same time each day for scheduling consistency. Two: Always rest between exercises. Just like in the gym, give your muscles a chance to relax, and your brain a chance to allow the scope of the exercise to sink in between reps. 30 seconds is plenty of time between exercises. Three: Always start with a reasonable amount of time spent on each exercise before moving to the next. I have found that five minutes per exercise with 30 second rests in between is plenty to start with. As you become more comfortable and confident with the exercises, you can start adding time to each one for conditioning. Four: never let passion override your reason. Always be present in the moment to realize when your muscles are becoming fatigued. Each practice session will have an inflection point. Simply stop when you become overly tired.
