Instruments: Piano Guitar Synthesizer
For all beginner students, I start with Berklee Music Theory Book 1 and a few selections from one of my Real Books to begin to apply some theory techniques. Once I feel that the student has a firm understanding of fundamentals of theory I usually have the student select one piece from the Real Book selections and we then begin working on playing the piece as well as analyzing the piece.

I love the learning process and to see students progress through the stages of learning an instrument. I taught myself to play the piano before I started formal lessons. I began playing the saxophone at the same time I took up the piano. I entered my undergraduate program in 1992, majoring in music education with the saxophone and piano as my principle instruments. During my studies at the University of South Alabama, a new program was started in MIDI and I attended an extra year to master digital audio. Read More
Instruments: Piano Saxophone
I prioritize individualized progress, recognizing that each student follows their unique path in their musical journey. To support this, I establish realistic goals tailored to each student's abilities and aspirations during our lessons. Acknowledging achievements serves as a powerful motivator, igniting a student's drive to reach new heights in their musical pursuits. I find that celebrating milestones not only instills a sense of accomplishment but also cultivates a hunger for further learning. Read More

Instruments: Voice
One of my greatest pleasures is imparting the knowledge that I have gained through my ten plus years of study onto others. I personalize my teaching style to the needs and temperaments of my students. When instructing, I explain concepts in multiple ways, ensuring that no matter what learning style you are, that you will able to progress and achieve. My students find me to be energetic, warm and passionate, and one of my biggest goals is to make my students feel more empowered when they leave than when they arrived. Read More
Instruments: Piano Voice Flute
For beginning piano students, I usually employ the Faber or Alfred Series books. They are intuitive and the various books (Lesson, Theory, Technique, Performance, etc) complement each other well! They also have an "older beginner" series that is great for teens and adults that are new to piano. I also encourage my students to try composition, even if it is very simple melodies. This is usually after they have established a good grasp on beginning music theory concepts. For beginning voice, we begin half with the essential signing technique as well as the beginning musical concepts such as pitch, rhythm, etc. Read More
Instruments: Drums
I love music, teaching drums, recording bands and making music videos. I am a graduate of Musicians Institute College of Contemporary Music in Hollywood, California with a degree in drum/percussion performance. In 2005, I was hired as the drum instructor at Los Angeles City College. Since then, I have authored three different drum books and have taught music at Southern California Music School, Pasadena City College, LA Valley College, LA Academy, Music Training Center and several other institutions.

Why did you choose your primary instrument?
I don't have a primary instrument, but if I had to narrow it down, I would say Piano, Bass, Drums, Ukulele. Those are my favorite instruments to play and those are my best instruments out of all of the instruments that I play. I can play pretty much any instrument, but banging on drums is probably what makes me the happiest. I can express my emotion and use dynamics to express different moods and feelings. I would love to teach others my primary instruments, but also other instruments I play to make the world a place full of musicians that play all kinds of instruments.
What musical accomplishments are you most proud of?
I am most proud of playing with others and joining a musical community where I can play with others and make friends and new family members from it.
I got the John Phillip Sousa award in High School for being the best student in the entire orchestra for four whole years. Only one person gets that award. I also got to perform on live television which was a great experience.
I am in many bands.
One of them is currently making a music video.
Another one is recording a professional album and when done, the album will be sent to a friend who works as a scout for Razor and Tide records.
Another band just recently played at some fashion shows, a museum, and we are working our way up the ladder and getting closer to really getting our music out there.
Another band I am in has nine pre-grammy nominee awards and a music innovation award for their songs and music videos and we play at a festival in Brooklyn, New York.
Have any of your students won awards or been selected for special honors? How have they succeeded?
Even though I am pretty young, I spent a lot of my life teaching myself how to play instruments and I have been performing for around five years.
That experience is what I needed in order to teach others how to play instruments to the point where they are so good at it, that they can perform live and feel comfortable playing around others.
I haven't had any students yet as this is the reason why I have joined the Musika Community.
I plan to teach students to the best of my ability and once I do that, we will see how many of my students decide to perform music to the point where they will have a chance to win awards or get special honors.
