In high school I had the great privilege of being selected as the Principal clarinetist in the Minnesota All-State Band.

Clarinet is my primary instrument and first love. I also teach saxophone and beginning flute and hope to add other woodwinds in the future. Piano has always been an important influence in my musical performances and I believe it is a gateway to interest in other instruments, so I truly enjoy teaching it! Read More
Instruments: Piano
I move at whatever pace is appropriate for the particular student. We set long-term goals so they have something they are working towards and are rewarded for hard work. Learning how to play the piano is about so much more than just the piano! The benefits reach far beyond music, helping them with school, self-confidence, and many other aspects in their everyday life. Although we do follow a method book for at least the first few years, we add additional solo music, and I let them choose from several level-appropriate pieces so that they are enjoying what they are learning.

Did you have a teacher that inspired you to go into music? How did they inspire you?
My first teacher, (from 8 until I was 12), was a very sweet, older man, who did a wonderful job teaching me the basics. I was a bit sad and surprised when he told me he had taught me everything he could, and that it was time for me to find a more advanced teacher. My second teacher was a professional studio and television musician. He inspired me to perform and work with other musicians. By the time I was 16, I was playing weddings and other well paid gigs, as well as playing in the studio and with several bands. I teach my students, no matter what age, the music they like. I know that a student will practice more, and get more enjoyment from playing the type of music they like. Yes I play and teach every genre from old fashioned country to progressive Hip Hop, and everything in between, including rock and roll, Mozart, Beethoven and Michael Jackson.
When will I start to see results?
If the student practices you'll see results very quickly. If not they'll go slowly or just stay in the same place. I will not continue to teach a student who does not practice. My cardinal rule is, if I have to teach you the same lesson, 3 times, because you didn't practice, I will fire you as a student. I don't like to teach the same lesson over and over, and I feel like I'm stealing money for doing nothing, and I have a moral problem with that. Again, you get out of music lessons, what you put in.
What advice do you have about practicing effectively?
I feel it is important to practice soon after a lesson. The next day at the latest. If not the student will, most likely, forget some, if not all of the lesson. Many students seem to wait until the day of the lesson, to practice the last lesson. This is a set up for failure. You are better off practicing 20 minutes a day, than an hour and a half on one day. Students need to stop, if they're having trouble with a certain measure, and analyze and work on that measure. Just playing through the song, as best as you can, not stopping to fix or correct mistakes, is really not practicing.
How do I know if my child is ready to start lessons?
It depends upon the child. With very young children, attention span is sometimes a problem. Understanding some basic math and fractions is quite helpful. I've taught several children fractions. I have taught a 3 1/2 year old successfully, using color. Whenever I'm asked to teach a child younger than 6 years, I set up an evaluation lesson. I can generally see, pretty quickly, if we should start lessons. If your child is interested in listening to the sound of things vibrating. When I was 4 years old, I would take our oven wire rack, put it up to my ear, and pluck it like a harp. I remember to this day, how good the sound made me feel. I was able to start lessons when I was 8.
