I first started working with children when I was attending Florida State College. I took a course on elementary education, and did some field work at a local elementary school. It was there that I found out how much I really loved kids. I had a wonderful time in the classroom. It was fun getting to know the students, and I loved how their faces lit up when I read them stories or helped them with their arts and crafts. Read More

I’m an enthusiastic and talented instructor that loves teachings and inspiring others to share my love for music. I am a recent graduate from Bethune-Cookman University where I studied with Russian-born pianist Rose Grace. Music is a universal language that has taken me places I never imagined I would go and allowed me to meet very powerful and influential people. I am the 2017-18 White House HBCU All-Star which is a recognition for outstanding leadership, community service and academic achievement from the White House Initiative. Read More

We toured much of the east coast and Europe. When I left the Marine Corps I put together a band that toured around the southeast. We even got invited to play the halftime show of the Hula Bowl college football game in Honolulu, Hawaii. I have played in a few other bands along the way opening for and performing with some major national artists. Each band/group/ensemble had one major thing in common. Read More

Since High School (2005) I began to teach music in my own studio in Puerto Rico, working with kids and adults. My main goal is to create a collaborative work plan. I will never impose a single method in all the students, because we all have different aspirations and different priorities. I will help you as a student to accomplish any goals you can have and I will do whatever it takes to keep you motivated. Read More
