I started teaching when I was 18, still in high school. I have been taking lessons for 15 years at that point, and felt the need to share my experiences and knowledge with everyone around me. I found a lesson studio that had students for me to teach and since then I have been teaching private lessons, group classes, drum circles and at the professional college level for 12 years. While teaching, I try toincorporate my professional experiences and relate those to concepts that the student is working on. Read More
Instruments: Piano
My method is definitively circumstantial to the student. If the student is hoping to perform casually, then we advance at a casual pace. If the student is hoping to perform competitively, we go much faster. Either way, I hope to transfer the art into a lens that grabs the student's heart and attention, since propelling the art - regardless of life circumstance - is my primary ambition. Read More

I am a very passionate music teacher, it's really who I am. I thrive off of opening the doors of music to people new to playing an instrument and teaching them a foundation upon which to grow. I graduated from UMASS Lowell with a Bachelors in Music Performancein 2014 and have 9 years of teaching experience in and around the Boston area. I play and manage a band called Skyfoot and have for about 6 years now. Read More
Instruments: Piano Voice
Voice- Depending on how long the lesson is we work on vocal warmups then work on a song. In a 30 min lesson we do vocal warmups for 10 minutes then work on a song fir 20 minutes.Learning the proper vocal technique. Piano-Go through lesson book and other performance books also work on theory if the child is younger and has a short attention span. I love teaching all ages and all styles of music. Read More
Instruments: Piano Saxophone Flute Synthesizer Recorder
I was born in the birthplace of blues and jazz, Baton Rouge, Louisiana. In conjunction with my college music degree, I had the opportunity to preform on stage with some of the greatest names in blues music including Big Luther Kent, Sundanze, Tabby Thomas, Jo Monk, Boogie Long, and on, and on. I went on to dig deeply into the classic and modern Jazz, funk, and soul with my band Captain Green. Read More
Instruments: Piano
Drawing a grand staff and then drawing notes on the staff help the student understand how music is written. Once basic theory is introduced, I look for music that I hope the student will enjoy playing. I know that there is music I love to play and music I would rather not play. It is important to find at least once piece that the student really likes and looks forward to playing. Read More

Have any of your students won awards or been selected for special honors? How have they succeeded?
I do a pretty good job of placing students into regional, honors, and all-state bands. Usually there's someone in my studio who's all-state level. A few of my students have gone on to be professional musicians. One tours the world with his one-man Sax BeatBox" act; another plays in thee President's Own USMC band; etc. But I don't really measure success by how many of my students turn pro. If you've learned something, if you've grown as a person, if you retain a love for making music well after your last lesson is over, that's a success in my book.
What do you think is the hardest thing to master on your instrument?
Fundamentals, i.e. good tone, good time, solid technique, intonation, solid reading skills. You never really get beyond the basics; you just get better and better at them throughout your life. "Mastery" is a moving target where music is concerned; you'll pursue it your whole life.
Do you use specific teaching methods or books? (Ex: Alfred, Bastion, Suzuki, Hal Leonard) Why did you choose them if you did?
For piano, I like the Alfred Books - they have a very robust and well-rounded curriculum. But others like Schirmer and Bastien are good, too. For wind instruments, I can teach effectively using whatever method book you're currently using in band. Standard of Excellence and Essential Elements seem to be the two favorites right now, and they're both great. We won't always be using books, though. I have lots of my own supplemental materials, and I'm also a big fan of learning by ear and improvising.
When will I start to see results?
You should start seeing results right away. This all depends on the amount of time you want to put in. I only see you for 30-60 minutes once a week; the real progress happens during the other six days.
Did you have a teacher that inspired you to go into music? How did they inspire you?
I had many great teachers along the way, starting in 1st grade and continuing on through college. Most of them were pretty great about encouraging me to get better and supporting me, while at the same time not "sugar-coating" how difficult it is to make a living in music.
Why did you choose your primary instrument?
My mom was watching a cheesy music video one evening, right before we had out little 4th grade instrument "petting zoo." She made the offhand comment about how the saxophone was such a magical instrument to her. That was it - saxophone for me. Since that time I've branched out into several other instruments, but I still remember that moment.
What advice do you have about practicing effectively?
Make a habit of it, every day. Even if you only play for a few minutes - you might be surprised what you can accomplish in 5-10 minutes every day. You'll definitely accomplish more than "cramming" for 1-2 hours right before your lesson.
How do I know if my child is ready to start lessons?
You're ready today! If you have the desire to learn something new, you're absolutely ready right now. That's literally all that's required. That and the actual instrument, of course, lol.
