Instruments: Piano Violin Cello Viola
I'm a dedicated piano, violin, and viola teacher and I enjoy teaching students of all ages! I went to Mannes College of Music and then played viola at the Spoleto Festival in Italy. In addition to teaching, I also play piano at major charities and fundraisers, including the Democratic Party Convention. I can teach classical or popular music, and pride myself, and getting students to learn quickly and correctly. My motto is, fun and learning! Read More
Instruments: Piano Keyboard
For young students, we pick beginning repertoire to use based on the kid's and parents' interests. As we explore the interests of the student within our initial framework, I continue to make suggestions as to where we may have the best success. For adults, I teach based on the interests of the student; however, I also encourage a jazz and classical-based pursuit, as this will inform most other styles of music and strengthen the performance ability and musicality of the student.

Instruments: Piano Voice
I always start with applicable musical theory to help the student understand the basics of piano and what are the proper techniques to play the instrument. The same applies to voice lessons. After a student is able to read music on the basic level and knows the placement of notes on the scale, we proceed to the basic repertoire and practice. Each student is individual, so based on the pace I create a schedule, which always includes implementing the learnt material more and more, so that student can perform basics automatically correct.

Instruments: Piano Keyboard
I started taking piano lessons at the age of 5. As a I continued to take piano lessons, I eventually in middle school began to study with a professor from Julliard until entering the university. I graduated from the Jacobs School of Music at Indiana University with a Bachelors of Music degree in piano performance. However, I started teaching right away and have enjoyed teaching for over 40 years. I have continued performing as well and enjoy the combination of spreading the beauty of music thru teaching and performing! Read More
Instruments: Piano Guitar
I strive to tailor each lesson based on the student's goals and interests and to expose the student to new musical ideas and styles. Lessons will be laid-back, encouraging, and enjoyable, and will help the student progress at a comfortable pace. We will work together to help you achieve your goals and gain a well-rounded music education, regardless of age or musical background. Read More

If you weren't a musician what do you think you'd be doing instead?
I am actually pursuing my dream job, being a college professor, teaching philosophy and education. I love music, but philosophy and education is something of a higher power for me. I study national education policy and state education policy. I hope one day I am able to change the way federal and state policy is enacted. I believe the state of education is going the wrong way. Teachers should have complete control of what they teach and how they teach it. This is something I am really passionate about.
What is your favorite style/genre of music to play and why?
I answered this question above. I love everything. I am not opposed to playing any style. I have played country, celtic, funk, blues, jazz, hip-hop, indie rock, folk rock, and more. I do love playing indie rock though. As long as I am creating something new I am happy. Music is infinite and you can play something twice and it will be different each time. That is why music is special. Music can be difficult and easy, but it is always fun. I will play anything at anytime. There is nothing I would not play.
If you play more than one instrument, how did you decide to start playing the second? (Or 3rd, 4th, 5th, etc)!
I had tolerant just about every instrument in my music education program. I had to take piano for two years in college, classical piano and jazz piano. This helped me out greatly when it came to composing songs. The piano is like having every instrument at your finger tips it is the best instrument. I love paying other instruments because it is a new world for me both physically and mentally. I am like a kid in a candy shop. I recently started playing trumpet because it seemed challenging, and it is, but it is very fun.
Does music run in your family? Tell us a little about your musical family members.
Music does not run in my family. I took the pains of learning how to play music at the age of twenty-four years old. I learned how to read music, learn by ear, and physically play. This was an amazing experience for me. It helped me see that discipline is the main source in learning to play music. I had a great work ethic before I started to play and now it is even stronger because of music. I am the only one in my family that plays music. I learned from friends, teachers, and on the job training.
When did you decide to become a professional musician? Was it a gradual decision or was there a defining moment for you?
I fell into playing music professionally. I was professionally playing before I went to college for music. I played about four to five nights a week an learned everything from playing live, sort of. I practiced about eight hours a day on top of working, building houses. I had the passion, drive, and want to go somewhere with music. I made it happen by playing and practicing. I made sure that I was humble, reliable, and good at what I did. These reasons are the only reasons why I was able to play professionally.
