Instruments: Piano Saxophone Flute Music Keyboard
Hello, I am a saxophonist, composer, educator and multi-instrumentalist. I began playing the saxophone at age 12 and from the moment I first touched the horn, I was hooked. After becoming more familiar with the jazz language, I quickly became further immersed in the jazz scene back home in Dallas. During high school I performed in many jazz festivals, competitions and local bands that furthered my artistry and understanding of the music I am playing. Read More
Instruments: Piano Guitar Voice Recorder
I began teaching while I was still a student at the Conservatory of Music in the 1990's I was Voice Teacher at the Intermezzo Music School in Guaynabo, PR. I taught all ages from 7 - 69. I stayed there for 7 years. I also gave private singing lessons to students at my own home in Carolina, PR. And then, I proceded to give voice lessons at different churches like the Methodist Church (where I also founded and directed the choir), Evangelical Church (where I gave voice lessons at the Biblical Institute to prospect Worship Leaders).

Instruments: Piano Music Keyboard
Everyone who would pay to have private music lessons is willing to learn from the teacher. I will have different teaching methods when it comes to different students, everyone has their own skill level and from different ages. But there are few things I need to say :I expect students to work with me so we can save more time. I will have students play and listen at the same time. Read More
Instruments: Piano Flute Piccolo
No matter the level of the student, I think it is important for them to have achievable goals to work towards. I like to have my students always preparing for something, whether it is an audition, recital, or competition. We do this by working on a combination of solos, etudes, fundamentals, duets, and sight-reading activities. I like to make sure that whatever we are working on is at the right ability level for the student and challenges them appropriately. Read More
Instruments: Piano Voice Organ Music Keyboard
I have enjoyed playing, singing and accompanying vocally and on piano, organ and keyboard since the age of 7. I have both Choir and Solo vocal experience as well as played piano and organ for Churches and special performances. I have trained choirs and soloist and taught singing lessons for more than 10 years. I also have trained praise dancers and trained, accompanied instrumentally and toured an All City Children's Choir throughout Tarrant County for many years. Read More
Instruments: Piano Organ
Piano: I enjoy the Alfred books as they explore the fundamentals of piano playing and provide tips for good habits. After having a good foundation for the fundamentals, I will move on to the Hanon book which explores technical exercises, scales, and arpeggios. Students will learn repertoire that will range from contemporary genres to classical genres. Organ: A piano background would be preferred. I like to start with the Davidson book and use Gleason for mastering the pedals. Read More
Instruments: Saxophone
What advice do you have about practicing effectively?
Go in with reasonable goals. SLOW IT DOWN. Practicing involves a lot of movement pattern development and muscle memory. That can't be accomplished if the passage is being practiced at a tempo beyond where the student is completely comfortable. If a phone is used for a metronome and tuner (both of which should be used at EVERY practice session) the phone should be put into 'airplane mode' to prevent distractions. My overriding philosophy is this- FUNDAMENTALS NEVER STOP BEING COOL. Each practice session should include long tones with the tuner on a drone (tune with your ears, not your eyes) and technique work (scales, scale variants, and etudes ) prior to any repertoire. If time is limited, a slow series of scales prior to repertoire work is what I'd recommend.
When will I start to see results?
It's difficult to always see real results because you as a student are a little too close to the situation. I liken it to weight loss. The little improvements you'll notice at first. After a while, you might not notice them so much but others certainly will. This will continue as long as you study and play the instrument. The better you get, the more the bar is raised. If you get frustrated by a perceived lack of progress you must ask yourself this: Could I do this last year? Last month? It's a journey. Enjoy the victories and learn from the challenges. FAIL simply stands for First Attempt At Learning.
What musical accomplishments are you most proud of?
There are a few things that make me proud. I was the 2016 Concerto Competition winner at my alma mater as well as the performing artist of the year that year. My graduation the following December was a very proud moment. I'm proud to have gotten into a graduate program. I'm proud to have received endorsement deals from two different music companies. Mostly, though, I'm proud of the students I've taught and the relationships I've forged in the saxophone world. I have one particularly proud moment, though. University of Michigan Sax Professor and Grammy winner Timothy McAllister told me that I inspired him with my sound the summer he graduated from high school. That meant a lot.
Have any of your students won awards or been selected for special honors? How have they succeeded?
I've had students make regional and All State honor bands in Tennessee, Mississippi, and Kentucky as well as several University honor bands in the same region. It's a lot of fun to celebrate those accomplishments with my students. However, I'm more proud of those who simply choose to make music a larger part of their lives and continue the instrument after high school. One of my students, a young man who was awarded first chair All State in Mississippi as well as in several university honor bands decided he loved saxophone repair and has become one of the top repair technicians in Colorado and the entire Rocky Mountain area. The fact that I was involved in starting him down the path is very humbling to me.
