Instruments: Piano Voice Keyboard
My teaching style is best referred to as a facilitator. Essentially, I promote self-learning, helping students develop critical thinking skills and retain knowledge that leads to self-actualization. I prefer to guide students by letting them think for themselves, pointing out when mistakes are made but also encouraging them to learn and grow from them. The draw back from this is that it can be a bit time consuming, but I feel that at the end of the day, this helps a student so that eventually they will be able to learn by themselves without a teacher.

Instruments: Piano Saxophone Flute Clarinet Bass Guitar Keyboard
I consider myself a laid back teacher who still has solid expectations. I understand that each student's feasible time commitment may be different and I would like to honor that. With that said, I expect my students to put time into their music, because that is the only way to make progress and to maximize their ultimate enjoyment of playing an instrument. I will set realistic weekly goals for each student, trying to balance their interests with my evaluation of what they need to work on to make the most progress. Read More
Instruments: Piano Guitar Voice Bass Guitar Euphonium Tuba
While still in college, I was a music tutor at North Star in Hadley For two years. I worked one-on-one with students in middle school on both voice and guitar. During my time there, I taught kids anything from different chords on the guitar, to breath support and passion in one's singing, to vocal improvisation and stage confidence. I've been away from teaching for a couple of years, but with the a Capella group, I have to accommodate for twelve different people and their learning styles. Read More

To me, nothing is more rewarding than seeing my students' passion for music arise during, and after lessons. For this is the way i believe important progression happens, when the student is passionate about the subject matter and eager to explore and most importantly enjoying it in the process. I always try to set an attainable goal for each lesson, its through these accomplishments that encourages a student to keep progressing and learning more about the instrument and music. Read More

If you play more than one instrument, how did you decide to start playing the second? (Or 3rd, 4th, 5th, etc)!
I have a hunger to learn what I like the sound of. Because of this, I have picked up many Instruments that are found in the Celtic music tradition as well as many others.
What is your favorite style/genre of music to play and why?
My favorite style of music would have to be Celtic music. I grew up playing it with friends and family, so it has become a part of who I am.
If you weren't a musician what do you think you'd be doing instead?
I don't think I could do anything outside of the arts. If not a musician, I would pursue acting, comedy, or perhaps writing. I love to cook, so perhaps I would consider being a chef. It's all about being a creative. I believe in order to truly experience life, you need to experience the sweet satisfaction of creating something.
What does a normal practice session look like for you?
I sit down, set a timer for at least 30 minutes, and play through my latest or favorite piece along with a metronome. I start the metronome slowly and work up speed over time.
What do you think is the hardest thing to master on your instrument?
the hardest thing to master is a truly effective practice method. Just like anything else, it requires a routine to be successful. Developing routines is a very hard skill to master in my opinion.
Why did you choose your primary instrument?
My father loved Rock & Roll, so i followed suit. We would jam for hours when I was as young as 8 years old. I just loved being able to sing and play my favorite songs whenever I wanted.
What musical accomplishments are you most proud of?
In 2016 I was flown across the Atlantic to perform at the Largest Celtic Music Festival in the world, Celtic Connections. In 2019 I played on stage with one of my greatest heroes, Liz Carroll.
Did you have a teacher that inspired you to go into music? How did they inspire you?
My first Fiddle Teacher snapped me out of my nervousness by putting the fiddle in my hands and giving me cold hard facts: that if I wanted to learn I needed to play my very first notes, even if they didn't sound good. She played along with me slowly which greatly reinforced my confidence.
When will I start to see results?
If your heart is in it, you could be playing music in some small way in as little as one month or less. All it takes is the will to learn and a love for music.
When did you decide to become a professional musician? Was it a gradual decision or was there a defining moment for you?
Growing up, I payed Celtic style guitar with friends or at events purely for the love of it. Over time it became clear that this was something I could do professionally as people started to pay me for the music I gave them.
