Instruments: Guitar
I started playing guitar at 13 years old, way back in 1996. I taught myself for about 5 years before taking up lessons. I studied classical and jazz under Danny Smith, a student of Andres Segovia who is a famous classical guitarist. I love all types of music and over the years I have played in jazz, rock, blues, metal, punk, folk, and country bands. I love to teach and spread the joy of music to anyone who is interested.

At the age of 17, I flew to Hollywood, CA to attend Musicians Institute where I studied Bass Guitar Performance. Learning from and playing with some of the best musicians in the business was amazing. I left school to hit the road with my first professional band. I spent the next 20+ years writing, recording and touring all over the country. I was lucky enough to be in a few bands that landed indie recording contracts, which allowed me to tour nationally doing original music, with songs I had written being played on radio and on TV shows across the country.

Connecting with students from ages 6 to 45, I bring a knowledgable approach and genuine love of music to students who look to find their groove. For all styles of learners, I incorporate a wide range of material to acommodate students' personal interests. It's my goal to guide students to discover their creativity and passion for music, helping them express their soul through their instrument for a lifetime of enjoyment. Read More

I've been teaching in one form or another for over 20 years. I ahem also had some really fun mentor relationships as well. One in particular in Mt. Juliet TN. A young man I met at age 10 and is now 21 years old. He had released three records since we first met. I'm very proud of Zach. I've played guitar on over 30 recordings and played over 1,000 shows/concerts. I've charted on the Billboard Chart and my current pop/rock single is #1 in Europe and U.K. on the Euro Indie Top 200!

My teaching experience started when a good friend introduced me to a family that has two daughters that were interested in learning music. The 11 year old wanted to learn how to play the drum set and the 14 year old was interested in playing the guitar. I found the joy of teaching music to children on these instruments was a very challenging but rewarding experience that lasted for 3 years. I also have also instructed a number of adults to this date how to play the guitar and the drums. Read More

For children and beginning studetns, I will typically start in a level one method book. This allows us to get acquainted with the instrument and some terminology that may be a bit foriegn for some students. This also provides an opportunity to learn how to read basic notes and chords which will highly accelerate our learning process. For those with experience and established musical interests, I will form a plan and practice schedule based around the interest and concepts that the student seeks from theirmusical quest. Read More

I love watching my students learn and grow, musically. I encourage listening as much as possible in addition to daily practice. I like to give my students a variety of excercises or pieces to work on to ensure that they don't get bored or burnt out practicing the same thing. I am very laid back and easy to get along with, and I feel that above all else music should be exciting and fun for the student, whether it be performing in recitals or shows or simply for one's own enjoyment.

What advice do you have about practicing effectively?
Repetition and going to the specific measure or line that is giving problems is effectively practicing. Once one gets the specific piece, adding on a measure at a time will reinforce the learned material through repetition.
What do you think is the hardest thing to master on your instrument?
The hardest thing to master on the trombone is the slide-tongue technique, where the slide correlated with the tongue of the performer. It can be quite difficult, but practicing using slide movement warm-ups will help aid in the mastery in this technique.
What musical accomplishments are you most proud of?
I am proud to be one of the first female trombone section leaders at South Carolina State University, and the first female section leader at my high school. I have performed in so many places, but my most favorite accomplishment was performing in the Honda Battle of the Bands. I had grown up watching the Honda Battle of the Bands as a child. I always told myself that I would one day be apart of a Historically Black College and University (HBCU) Band perform in the event. Through practice, hard word, and diligence, I was able to perform in the event--3 times.
Why did you choose your primary instrument?
I chose the trombone because it was different from any other instrument in music. I truly enjoy the slide and I feel truly at peace when playing it.
Did you have a teacher that inspired you to go into music? How did they inspire you?
Yes, my high school band director was my main inspiration to become a music teacher. He molded me as a musician and motivated me to be the person that I know I could be. He challenged me through challenging pieces of music and he was like a second father to me. He truly was always there for his students.
When will I start to see results?
It depends on your child, how much the student practices, and how the student keeps up with the lessons. You will see results when you can see your student progressively being able to blow through the instrument obtaining sound. It does take time and Rome was not built in a day, but progress will show when the student is comfortable and confident in what they are performing.
How do I know if my child is ready to start lessons?
Children actually are ready to start lessons at a young age. It all depend on how engaging the instructor is that determines how much your student will gain from the lesson. I have worked with students as young as three years old, and they have been beyond ready for lessons
