I have been playing percussion for at least 40 years and share my love for music through teaching and performance. I presently am a show group member of Samba New York where I am section leader for the third surdo section. I play many Brazilian percussion instruments as well. I am also the section leader of the North Shore Symphony Orchestra and the Massapequa Philharmonic Orchestra where I play timpani. And though I presently play timpani, I have extensive experience playing mallet instruments, drumset, latin percussion and world percussion. Read More
Instruments: Voice, Music
My first lesson is always focused on the student's goals. We will discuss background and interest in music. I will test range via keyboard and show activities concerning different diction exercises and breathing techniques. Every student has different learning needs and I tailor my lesson pace around them. Each student gets the same messages but delivery and pace will differ depending on the student's needs. I also may give out some "homework". Read More

I have had the honor to perform for many notable people including Leonardo DiCaprio, Angelina Jolie, Arnold Schwarzenegger, Michael Douglas, and Andrea Bocelli. As a singer/songwriter my music has been featured on radio stations across the country, on TV networks such as STARZ and CMT, and reviewed and publications like Songwriting Magazine and Pop Wrapped. I continue to perform with several bands as well as write and record new music. Read More
Instruments: Voice, Music
For beginning students it is most important to me to help them build a habit of "how to practice" to keep their voice healthy. Secondly, I give them individual exercises and short music excerpts that they enjoy and we can learn together. It is important to slowly introduce music that is a little more challenging and that will keep them engaged and knowing of their improvements. For adults, I want to know what they are interested in and how I can help them. Read More
