I am passionate about all facets of music and music education. I am motivated by my students, learning from them how best to instruct them and act as a guide through the universe of music. I am from a family of musicians having grown up in the culture of musical performance on both my mother and fathers side. I graduated from SUNY Empire State with a Bachelors in Music Performance with a concentration in Bass and Piano. Read More

I am a veteran of the teaching profession. I graduated from S.C.S.U. in 1986 and I have been instructing students in many capacities since that time. Some attributes I bring to my profession are a calm, understanding demeanor and a passion for helping my students achieve their individual goals. My motivation for remaining in this profession for this length of time is the benefit I pass to my students. Read More

For beginning students I start with an Alfred's beginning drum method to help with reading. We also start on the basic understanding of musical concepts such as tempo, dynamics and so on. While reading is important I do also include learning by wrote or by ear. A good ear is just as important as good reading skills for the complete musician. I always include music that the student is interested in to keep the lessons fun and engaging! Read More
Instruments: Piano Guitar
I am a mentor-style teacher. I love to see my students develop their love for music at their own pace, and I will do whatever it takes to help them achieve their goals. I feel that the music teacher/student relationship is something that can transcend music, and so I can be counted on for trustworthiness, reliability, punctuality, and honest encouragement. I also feel that it is critical that the music teacher themselves be a performing musician, and so I try to remain active with various performance projects involving piano and chamber music; this experience helps to benefit the student as well.

Instruments: Piano Guitar Voice
I am an avid singer, voice teacher, and music director. I spend the majority of my time performing and training others to perform. I am a tenor but am capable of training all voice types. My main avenues of performance are on the recital, and musical theater stages. I just finished up a production of "Children of Eden" in which I performed as Cain. I received degrees in both vocal performance and music education from Florida Gulf Coast University. Read More
Instruments: Piano Guitar Bass Guitar
My first ever performance was at a piano recital as a 6-year old. By the 5th grade I was performing with a genuine garage band, making our debut performance headlining at our elementary schools talent show. From that time forward I've been in countless multifarious bands and have been performing music in some form or other ever since. I have performed with and sat in for some of the finest NY metro area musicians including the late great Melvin Sparks, Scott Spray (Johnny Winter), Scott Lebish (James Brown) Gil Paris and Jeff Smith.

What advice do you have about practicing effectively?
The more you practice what I have taught you, the better a musician you will be. Practice as much as you can or want to until you get as good as you can or want to be. I can't force you to practice, but I can give you the steps necessary to become as good of a musician as you potentially could be. I will teach you the necessary steps to becoming a fantastic musician, if you decide to practice what I teach you and learn it on your own, you will eventually become a good enough musician to perform and also teach others what you have learned.
How do I know if my child is ready to start lessons?
Does your child want to learn so badly that he or she is begging you to find a way for them to learn their desired instrument? That's when you know they are fully ready. If your child says they want to learn how to play music, like playing piano for example, then it is your turn to make that happen. Once you make that happen, I will continue to make it happen. They won't be able to learn what they want without a teacher to guide them. I would gladly be that teacher and I am willing to help anyone at any age.
When will I start to see results?
You will see results as soon as you meet me. We will go over exactly what you want to go over and I will make it as fun as possible. You will be able to learn at your own pace and I will be able to teach you the methods that I came up with to get myself where I am today. You will see the best results when you take what I have taught you and then learned from it and practiced it so that you can remember what I taught you so that we can move on to improving your skills as a musician. You are the one that is in control of making yourself receive positive results.
Did you have a teacher that inspired you to go into music? How did they inspire you?
I didn't really have any teacher. I was born to play music and I made that happen on my own. I have an uncle that taught me a few chords on the guitar when I was six years old. A few months later after I learned some chords, I started teaching him some stuff that I improvised on. He would show me a Beatles song, I would correct him and tell him that the chord he showed me is actually a little more complicated than what is on the record. My perfect pitch helped me to learn every instrument and I used that to teach myself what I hear in other songs.
