As a strong believer of the KIPP mission and vision, I work hard to instill the truths spoken to me behind the process of getting to and through college, constantly reminded by the words of Marianne Williamson that “our greatest fear is not that we are inadequate, but that we are powerful beyond measure.” There are 2 things that I believe in regards to education: 1) All students can/will learn. 2) It is not whether or not you are smart, but rather HOW you are smart, citing Gardner's Theory of Intelligence.

Instruments: Piano Guitar Voice Bass Guitar Ukulele Music Keyboard Electric Guitar Classical Guitar Acoustic Guitar
If you play more than one instrument, how did you decide to start playing the second? (Or 3rd, 4th, 5th, etc)!
I started to play piano as a kid because I was a big fan of Billy Joel. I started singing in college because I got tired of dealing with singers in the bands I was in. I started playing ukulele after honeymooning in Hawaii.
What is your favorite style/genre of music to play and why?
I play lots of music styles. I have a three piece acoustic group that does acoustic renditions of songs by everyone from the Beatles to Lady Gaga. I always have fun with that. When I sit in front of TV with my guitar in hand I find myself working on lots of Rock/Jazz fusion type of stuff.
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 music degree in Music Performance from Berklee College of Music in Boston. I chose that degree because at that time I was completely focused on mastering the guitar.
What do you think is the hardest thing to master on your instrument?
On guitar, I believe the hardest thing to master is an understanding that it is not as difficult as one thinks. It does not take a musical genius or rocket scientist to learn the guitar. Anyone can do it with a little bit of patience and practice.
Do you use specific teaching methods or books? (Ex: Alfred, Bastion, Suzuki, Hal Leonard) Why did you choose them if you did?
I try to find books the best suit the student. I really like the Berklee Modern Method books for guitar.
Why did you choose your primary instrument?
I wish I had a better answer than this. I turned on MTV when I was 9 years old and saw the Bon Jovi video for "You Give Love a Bad Name." Two weeks later I had my first guitar and was taking lessons.
What musical accomplishments are you most proud of?
I have written music that ended up in some TV shows, Radio, and even films. One of my songs "Maybe" was featured in a short film that was played at a film festival in New York City's Bryant Park. I attended the viewing, sat in the audience, and got to hear my song played in front of about 10,000 people. It was quite a moment.
How do I know if my child is ready to start lessons?
Every child is different. I believe 7-8 is a good age for child to start. Your child's attention span and ability to focus is something to consider. Physical factors also come into play. Sometimes a child is just too small to hold a guitar and it becomes very difficult for them to learn.
When will I start to see results?
By the end of the first lesson you will know more than you did when you came in. How fast a student progresses depends on them. I can only teach them if they are willing to learn and practice. Some students will progress very quickly and others will not.
Did you have a teacher that inspired you to go into music? How did they inspire you?
My first guitar teacher when I was around 9 or 10 was lots of fun. He made me laugh, played heavy rock music, and had a teaching room filled with posters of my favorite bands. I loved going to my lessons. When I got to middle school there was a kid named Josh in my class who played guitar in a local band. They did all covers of 50's and 60's music and played with many of the groups from that era. I invited him over for my first jam session and was blown away at how well he played. He was so accomplished and I was very much an amateur. I couldn't even play a full song. He was taking lessons from a guy in town named Denny Scott. I decided to start taking lessons with Denny and my life as a musician began. Within in a matter of months my playing had improved drastically. When I got to eight grade I auditioned against Josh to be in the middle school jazz band and won. A few months later I took his place in the 50's and 60's cover band and got my first taste of performing. Had I not met Josh and switched to his teacher Denny, I may have never realized my full musical potential.
What advice do you have about practicing effectively?
I believe this varies from student to student. Some students have a shorter attention span and benefit from brief practice sessions. Other students are very enthusiastic and practice incessantly. To see any type of progress I believe each student should practice at least 15-30 min a day. This can be all in one session or broken up throughout the day.
