My teaching philosophy centers around fostering strong and lasting relationships with my students, enabling them to feel supported and motivated as they progress in their musical journeys. These connections often begin when my students are as young as 5 or 6 years old and continue to thrive throughout their formative years. I feel immensely gratified to have been an integral part of their growth and development, and it is a true honor to witness their achievements as they ultimately pursue their college education and embark on new chapters of their lives.

I can offer advice when it comes to equipment purchases. I have a method in place for my beginners: a combination of reading, technique and coordination exercises, jamming with favorite songs, and studying their favorite drummers. Read More
