Instruments: Piano Guitar Trumpet Saxophone Drums Mallet Percussion
I'm a firm believer in self motivation. Having a good teacher is important but having a great student is paramount. I love to develop concepts that work for the individual student whom I'm relaying ideas to. Whether it is theory or academia or the idea of honest expression, all these facets of teaching have always been inspiring to me. I can mock up many different playing situations to accommodate any level of player. Read More

My teaching experience goes back almost 8 years ago. I had joined a worship band for the church and one of the guitar players asked me for lessons to help him better understand how to play in a band. I traveled to his home and several others by word of mouth. A few years later I launched my own private lessons out of my home. Continually my personal lessons, I then worked part time with a private music academy for 5 years. Read More

I like to create a very warm, encouraging, relaxed and positive atmosphere for all my students. My teaching style is very much student-led in terms of goals and preferences. While I will create a general plan for each student to reach their particular goals, I never see my lesson plans as these rigid constructs that must be stuck to closely, and a guitar lesson may shift gears right in the middle of the lesson if I feel a student needs to spend a bit of extra time on one skill or concept before moving on, or if I find the student has picked up something much more quickly than expected, and we can move on to the next thing, or if the student asks a question that leads us to dive a little deeper into one particular topic that wasn't necessarily on the plan.

I believe in using your ears as the most important tool. Which means I believe in playing music rather than reading it. Growing up playing music by ear. I prefer this way of teaching and only use sheet music as an assistant to help the student get to a certain goal. As a teacher I can help you grow your abilities on your instrument. Help you achieve the cool warm sound you want from the saxophone. Read More

My lessons are based on a transfer of enthusiasm. When I get my students to hear what I hear and feel what I feel, there's nothing more rewarding! I pride myself in the fact that ALL my students that started with "package" or "trial" lessons renewed! Their goals are my goals and we work together to achieve them at a pace I can assess by their progress. Again, I don't teach music, I teach how to play the instrument, big difference, greater results! Read More

Inspiring new students to develop enthusiasm for music is incredible. I believe that every student learns in a different way and progresses at their own speed. I set attainable goals each week and give students the tools they need to be great even when they are not in the lesson space. By tailoring my lesson to the student's abilities and preferences, students learn to develop their own musical direction and appreciation. Read More

What advice do you have about practicing effectively?
Efficient and consistent practice is the key to doing anything well. If one wants to improve then they must patiently and consistently build the skills they need to be successful. There are no shortcuts, especially when pursuing a life as a musician. To elaborate on what practice is and is not; practice is not singing a song multiple times until you like the product. Practicing is warming up: vocalizing, practicing scales, executing vocal techniques to improving mobility, flexibility, control and higher quality sounds. Then after one has successfully warmed up, which can take 30 minutes to an hour depending on the voice type, then practicing a song includes working on rhythms, pitches, translations if the song is in another language, and interpretation. Then practice small sections of a songs and identifying problem areas. Practicing is taking time to learn a song. The order should be Text/Translations, Rhythm, Pitches, adding words to pitches then interpretation. The process of practicing and learning a song is lengthy but rewarding, and the end product speaks for itself.
How do I know if my child is ready to start lessons?
Any child is ready to take voice lessons if they show an interest and passion in it. One thing to remember is that not everyone grows at the same rate, so progress maybe be slow and gradual versus having instant growth. Honestly, true growth in the vocal field won't begin until after puberty has occur, and maturation of the vocal chords have begun, but anybody at any age can begin to build musical skills, a highly trained ear, performance confidence and an ability to interpret a song as to make it their own.
When will I start to see results?
Results depends on the age and how advance the student is already. I believe with consistent practice and instruction results can be seen in a month. Again, people grow at different rates so patience and encouragement is the key. Also, with understanding comes more confidence.
Did you have a teacher that inspired you to go into music? How did they inspire you?
The instructors that inspired me to pursue music were my middle and high school choir directors. They were amazing, kind and talented instructors that instilled a love for music and teaching within you. They encouraged me to continually improve, and to keep the love of music no matter what field I went into, and to keep singing. This stuck with me throughout life since and I decided to pursue music as my career. It was my college voice teacher that inspired me to pursue performing. I didn't think I was good enough and he convinced that I was and established a love for performing within in.
What do you think is the hardest thing to master on your instrument?
The hardest thing to master with the voice is consistency. Our voice are constantly changing and aren't the same everyday. Any little thing can cause are voices to feel different than what they would normally feel like. Sometimes we're tired, sick, emotional or are just having an off day, so we try to change our entire singing technique to compensate instead of doing what we know works. Its also hard to memorize sensations, good and bad. The good sensations lets us know when we are doing things correctly and the bad ones tell us when we are not. Trusting the good sensations and consistently sticking to them can be fairly complicated even though intellectually it makes sense. Consistency is what everybody, including high level professionals strive for, and is the hardest thing to do.
