Instruments: Flute Piccolo
I try to inspire students to become passionate musicians and people through my teaching and by example. It is important to play from the heart and not just notes on a page. It makes music and flute playing all the more gratifying! I also provide a lot of positive encouragement for students in their music but also for their lives in general. I believe that it is important to create a level of trust and comfortability with students so that more progress can be made on the flute. Read More
Instruments: Piano Voice Saxophone Flute Organ
I first started music at a young age through my local church; my first instrument being flute. I studied flute for many years before taking formal voice lessons. This led me to become a voice performance major at the Manhattan School of Music, where I sang lead roles in and outside of the school. In addition, I continued my flute studies as well as strengthen my piano skills. I've had the opportunity to perform at the Kimmel Center as soloist and chorister, Symphonic Space (NYC), as well as abroad in Italy and France. Read More
Instruments: Piano Guitar Bass Guitar Music Electric Guitar Classical Guitar Acoustic Guitar
I started teaching lessons when I was 18 at a music business and taught there between 3 to 5 hours a week for about 5 years. For the past 5 years I have been teaching at IU. I have taught many different styles from classical to jazz to rock, etc. and have also watched many great teachers and tried to learn from their methods. I am currently working on a book to teach the notes and fretboard of the guitar that will hopefully be able to help students of any age or experience. Read More
Instruments: Trumpet Trombone Euphonium French Horn Tuba
I'm a passionate and motivated instructor who loves working with students to share my love of music. I am originally from Sitka, Alaska, and in 2013 I graduated from Saint Mary's College of California with a Bachelor of Arts degree in Music. As an orchestral musician, I have performed throughout the United States and Europe in many renowned venues. I moved to the Indianapolis area in 2021 to teach music at Franklin College. Read More
Instruments: Drums
I am a passionate Christian and motivated drum instructor who loves working with students and sharing my love of music. Since 2007 I've been apart of The Salvation Army Indiana Divisional Band. Since 2011 I have the pleasure of working as a freelance drummer. I also had the joy of working as a drum teacher at Cornerstone Center for the Arts (Muncie, IN). One of the greater experiences of my life as a musician was having the opportunity of playing with The Salvation Army USA/International Band in 2013 Tournament of Roses Parade in Pasadena California.

Instruments: Piano Guitar Voice Drums Bass Guitar
My teaching experience with guitar goes back to about age 14, when I was understanding and advancing faster than others around me or someone would ask me for advice or help. I never had the chance nor opportunity to advance my studies to get a degree. Thoughout all these years it has been shown that some gifts are certainly not to be taken advantage of. Read More

Why did you choose your primary instrument?
When I was growing up mostly of what was on the radio was what would be classified as Pop Country and and Classic Rock. Pop Country never spoke to me because I had a difficult time liking the vocal twang. Classic Rock, however, always seemed to have these sweet riffs. Things that your ears would really gravitate toward and were memorable. It just seemed like it would so much fun to be able to do. On top of that the tone was so varied. You could listen to a song that had a somber and sweet guitar part, or one that was truly gritty and brutal. So the sound was extremely important for me.
What musical accomplishments are you most proud of?
I'm really proud to have had the opportunity to acquire the Classical Guitar Graduate Assistantship at Ball State University. I truly learned a lot about how to teach from that opportunity. Likewise, I'm proud of having spent some time in Chicago teaching for Merit School of Music and Sherwood Community Music School. With every new student I had the opportunity to teach I had a new opportunity to learn and improve my approach to each students needs and the way I explain topics. I'm truly grateful for every student I've taught.
Have any of your students won awards or been selected for special honors? How have they succeeded?
I have not had any students that have been awarded special honors or awards. While I have had students that have the potential to achieve those things, I simply haven't been in one place long enough to see them reach that point. Learning an instrument takes time. Additionally, if your goal is only to improve for yourself or just learn a few songs you really enjoy then reaching that level isn't unnecessary. Only a handful of students I've had have wanted to achieve that level of playing. And for them I am certain they will reach that goal.
What do you think is the hardest thing to master on your instrument?
I think the hardest thing to master for most people is patience. Even with physical or cognitive hurdles, knowing that you need to patient and not rush the progress is crucial to improvement. If you can stop and recognize that you're just stumbling through a few measures and can work on just that then you're in a much better place than most people who are picking up an instrument. So many people get frustrated because they can't get something and think that playing it quickly will get them to where they want to go. Just remember that patience is key.
