Instruments: Piano Guitar Violin Viola Bass Guitar Harmonica Mandolin Electric Violin Fiddle Double Bass
My teaching experience spans 6 years. I've taught all ages, so I'm comfortable with everybodys learning pace. In college I studied under the Latin Grammy award winning La Catrina Quartet, and I hope to pass down the knowledge I gain from that experience to my students. With my students, I take them step by step through were they are as a musician, to were they need to be. My experience working in ensembles will also expand my students ability to play in groups of all sizes (which will often happen). Read More

I have been teaching beginner guitar students for just over 1 year now. I have taught students from ages 5 years old to 60+ yrs. My love for guitar is expressed through teaching others who have a desire to learn, and to develop a passion for music as it relates to playing the guitar. I believe that anyone can develop this skill, if they just dedicate themselves to lots and lots of practice, and book study. Read More

I believe first and foremost in supporting and developing what musically inspires a student’s decision to study and/or play music. In order to fully develop control, musicality and understanding of the music language, it is important to focus on several aspects of music including music theory (scale and harmonic structure/function and rhythm) ear-training, reading and performance skills. Like any aspect of life, consistency and patience are two very important qualities to posses when working towards a goal. Read More
Instruments: Guitar Trombone Drums Orchestral Percussion Djembe
I have been teaching students privately for over a decade, starting with teaching trombone in high school, continuning with drumming students in college, and teaching professional-leve drums and percussion, advanced trombone, and beginner guitar students. My primary passion lies in West African music, and I really enjoy bridging cultural gaps in my teaching. At the same time, I am rooted in American jazz, western classical music, and rudimentary style drumming. Read More
Instruments: Piano Guitar
I truly believe that if students are happy and enjoying what they play they will want to practice and sound better. I encourage students to try classical but we will dive into a more modern approach. Original compositions can also be a fun great way for students to want to practice. I also have a strong music theory and technology background to really make sure they are amazed by understanding the world of music. Read More
Instruments: Piano Guitar Voice Recorder
Just like homeschooling, students will learn individually at their own pace. Students must enjoy their lesson. Sometimes the students may find it discouraging but it is my mission to give them acknowledgment in their accomplishments and nurturing so they can continue to flourish and be the best musicians they can be.

Instruments: Bass Guitar Electric Guitar
What do you think is the hardest thing to master on your instrument?
In my opinion it is finding your individual tone and comfortable techniques. Playing the bass guitar can be very painful! Especially in the beginning stages. Also knowing when to play and when not to play. I also believe that it’s hard to master the fact that the bass guitar may not be the highlight of the band. It may be a non glorified position and a bass player has to be comfortable with that. Like I pointed out earlier the bass guitar is the foundation of the sound. It may be very repetitive in what one plays and it’s hard to master the groove
Have any of your students won awards or been selected for special honors? How have they succeeded?
No not that I know of personally but I do know that I’ve inspired many children and grownups to find the music inside of them. I’ve inspired many to purchase an instrument and join a band no matter how good or bad they may be at playing it. I’ve inspired elderly people to get up and dance at private functions at assisted living facilities and nursing homes! I’ve inspired the youth to never give up the dream of being a musician no matter how long it takes. I’m a firm believer that there is no time line to success
Why did you choose your primary instrument?
I chose the bass guitar because it is the glue between the melody and the rhythm in contemporary modern music. It’s a very important element in most bands. The bass guitar is still a new instrument that was invented. I love the deep rumble of a bass guitar and also the cutting tone of its mid and high range. The bass guitar can also be a solo instrument. There are many techniques to getting a great sound from a bass guitar. There are bass guitars that have over 10 strings and some with only one!
What musical accomplishments are you most proud of?
I proud that I am credited as a professional musician on big time record labels with artists and producers on Interscope. As a child I would read the CD inserts to see who was playing the guitars, drums, bass, and all other instruments. Music was so good to listen to and I would always say that I wanted my name to be inside a professional CD one day and it happened more than once! I’m also proud to be s professional composer for films and documentaries. I’m also elated that I have been able to do professional theatre work as a musician!
