Instruments: Piano Guitar Voice Drums
No single approach works with every student when teaching drums. There are simply too many styles and methods to choose from. But when working with beginners, I tend to focus mostly on developing a good internal sense of rhythm and good listening skills. Then if the student wishes, we may specialize in classical, jazz, rock, latin, or whatever style the student is interested in. There are many excelent published methods to choose from and I occasionally assign etudes and excersizes of my own. Read More
Instruments: Piano
For older students, I enjoy working with the Adult All-In-One course. Again, a multi key approach, with correct hand positions, five finger positions, chords, keys and which moves at an accelerated pace. Again, I use much of my own material to supplement as needed. The ABRSM exams for those interested includes, sight reading, scales etc. aural and a set of pieces set by the exam board for that particular year. Read More

My teaching experienceis is this---I started teaching in High School, and taught at Hoboken School of the Arts for a while, 5years at Highline School District teaching music, 5years at Federal Way Schools teaching music. 7 years in Seattle teaching Clarinet Flute and Piano in the Central District, and at Washington Middle School (gifted students) I have happily taught for Musika for 9 years= clarinet flute, and piano. I taught for 10 years in the view ridge neighborhood while I was getting my degree at college. Read More
Instruments: Piano
For teaching a beginning student, I prefer Music Tree by Frances Clark.It's a very good material for kids and it shows them the basics of music: rhythm, melody, and theory. For advanced students, I will determine their level and style and choose the suitable repertoire for them in each lesson. Read More
Instruments: Piano Saxophone Clarinet
I am an experienced instructor who has worked with students of all ages and levels. Teaching provides me with the opportunity to spread my knowledge of the field, as well as have the chance to learn something that I may not have known about. I graduated from Cornish College of the Arts in May 2018, and since then have been refining my curriculum and playing all throughout Seattle with a wide variety of bands. Read More

What does a normal practice session look like for you?
1) Start with known material to warm up and start thinking musically. Learned etudes are good for this.
2) Next do technical studies such as scales, arpeggios, use of ornaments
3) Play through new material that is going to be worked on
4) Work on the current focus project. Making sure that there are accurate pitches, correct timing, correct fingering, rhythmic accuracy and any difficult passages are given the eleven minute rule.
5) Do the work for a piece that you are going to memorize.
6) Conclude by reviewing material that has already been learned and/or memorized.
If you have a Music Degree, what is it in (Performance, Education, Musicology, Theory, Composition, etc) and why did you choose that degree?
I was not able to complete my bachelors degree which was a performance degree in church music. I grew up singing in choirs and when I decided to be a full-time professional musician I started playing for church services.
From the time I started playing piano at age six playing for church was something I aspired towards. Sacred and spiritual music has always been part of my musical life and so do that professionally seemed appropriate.
Even though I did not complete my degree I have played in churches since 1987 and have used, besides piano, organ, guitar, mandolin bass and hand drums.
What is your dream piece to perform and why?
There are many pieces in a many genres that I would like to perform. If I needed to choose one piece I think that I would choose W. A. Mozart’s piano concerto No. 22 in Eb (K. 482). This particular concerto is iconic and to be able to perform it with an orchestra would be a beautiful thing.
My second choice would be to play Mauro Giuliani’s Sonata in C Major, Opus 15. I have been working on this piece for a couple of years and hope to soon start memorizing it so that I can perform it on a concert stage.
If you weren't a musician what do you think you'd be doing instead?
Before I became a full time musician I worked in orchards, nurseries and greenhouses and got an associates degree in horticulture. I have also worked as a woodwind repair technician. At various times I have worked in carpentry, as a mechanic, a bus driver, a snow plow operator and I have worked in retail stores for books and music.
None of the jobs listed above have had the importance that being a musician does. So, even though I could do many different things I cannot imagine being anything but a musician as long as I have a choice.
