Instruments: Saxophone
I feel a sense of accomplishment when I see one of my students gain an appreciation and passion for music. Because of this I think it is important that every student advances at their own speed. I encourage this by setting reachable goals for my students each lesson. My students realizing their accomplishments helps ignite their want to progress and their willingness to learn more. By trying to figure out what inspires my student, I can successfully design my instruction to their wants and needs. Read More

I perceive that teaching a student music is beyond simply having them play the right notes at the right time. I put High emphasis of posture, hand position, tone quality, etc.. My goal is to ultimately train well rounded musicians and not simply guitarists. I like my students to develop a musical taste and make tasteful decisions when playing their music. I teach my students Solfege, composition and arranging as well. Read More

Professional but fun. First we review the last couple of lessons, and then we do new- building upon what we have done earlier. Each student is unique, and I teach to them individually. I call it my Individual Music Program! I really get a kick out of seeing my students learn and progress along the musical staff, as the month go on., Often times I will get a brother and sister for lessons teaching them to play music together and become comfortable performing for family members and the public.

Instruments: Bass Guitar
What is your dream piece to perform and why?
I already performed it- Portrait of Tracy, a solo piece by Jaco Pastorius. I was asked to perform it at the Berklee Performance Center in Boston for the 1993 Bass Day performances. An amazing experience to perform it for over 3000 people.
If you have a Music Degree, what is it in (Performance, Education, Musicology, Theory, Composition, etc) and why did you choose that degree?
I have a performance degree from the Berklee College of Music. I chose performance because there was so much playing involved and the constant interaction with other musicians was immensely necessary in evolving to the level I sought after.
Do you use specific teaching methods or books? (Ex: Alfred, Bastion, Suzuki, Hal Leonard) Why did you choose them if you did?
Yes, I use a lot of the Berklee music books i have at my fingertips, Also I use the Jerry Bergonzi Inside Improvisation series which is so rich in content that you are amazed every time you work out of it then put it into place on the bandstand.
What do you think is the hardest thing to master on your instrument?
The hardest thing to master is to be able to play exactly what your hearing. That takes hours of performing, transcribing, and working hard where you're able to play exactly what you're hearing.
What musical accomplishments are you most proud of?
Soon to be released is a recording I did with some great LA and NY musicians and we were able to accomplish musically exactly what we wanted. Also, at Berklee I was able to play a lot with Antonio Sanchez, who is Pat Matheny's drummer. Also playing with Mahesh Balisoorio, an amazing pianist who has played with some of the best in Jazz. Also I got the chance to play with Danny Carrey- Tool's drummer.
Have any of your students won awards or been selected for special honors? How have they succeeded?
I've had two students graduate from Berklee College of Music and go on to professional music careers. Also students who, graduated Cal Arts, Oberlin Conservatory, and North Texas State- of the best music colleges in the world. .
Why did you choose your primary instrument?
I first started going around the house playing a rubber band and singing bass lines, then I had a friend who was a bass player and he lent me an instrument and just love the sound of the bass...
Did you have a teacher that inspired you to go into music? How did they inspire you?
My dad inspired me to go into music because he was a musician and started me out on the baritone horn, I then changed to trumpet in the 5th grade and my band teacher Mr. Baxter had multitudes of inspiration for me to continue my musical journey.
What advice do you have about practicing effectively?
Repetition is key to forming the musical chops, muscle memory, and complete understanding of the use of concepts and approaches. Also, concentrated and aware practice keeps you sharp and up on ideas, and improv.
How do I know if my child is ready to start lessons?
One way to tell is if they are singing, banging out rhythms on anything available to them. Also, if they start to ask questions about how to do things musical I think that is a good indication they are ready for lessons.
When will I start to see results?
Some results you will start to see right away, others may take a week or so, and advance techniques may take months at a time. The results are sometimes difficult to see yourself, that's where the teacher's experience comes in.
