Instruments: Piano Guitar Voice Trumpet
Music has always been a passion of mine ever since I could remember. My fathers old cornet constantly taunted me, telling me to play it. Fast Forward 12 years, I went to Berklee College of Music to study Trumpet Performance. I am a consumate learner, testing my knowledge in many different disciplines of music, from composition to instruments I have never played. Read More
Instruments: Piano Voice
Helping a singer build solid vocal technique is an organic process that unfolds as each singer presents his vocal strenghths, weaknesses, and learning styles. Everything I ask a student to do is based on the anatomy and psysiology of their vocal instrument. It is my goal to help singers understand and gain control over the many working parts that are involved in the singing process. I am a hands on, creative teacher who will do whatever it takes to help students unlock their true vocal potential. Read More
Instruments: Piano Cello
I strive to cultivate in all my students a lasting love for the art of music in whatever form it manifests in them. Finding what about the instrument is inspiring to the student is paramount to keeping both of us engaged in the process. As a teacher I challenge my students to explore the joy of making music with their instrument and to chase that which cultivates joy in their playing. Read More
Instruments: Piano Voice
I've been learning music since 3 years old, starting from listening to my grandparents sing every morning, to taking classical and voice lessons. I've been a passionate thinker of music, and I always try to bring the element of thinking and reflecting to my students. In 2020 I graduated from Berklee College of Music with Voice and Piano as my principal instruments, as well as earning a degree in Contemporary Writing and Production. Read More
Instruments: Piano Voice
I strive to have each student grow their passion and love for music. To remain curious and fearless in trying new things. I enjoy working with students to set goals such as - performing in a recital, auditioning for a production or competition, for singing and playing music they never thought they would be able to. I create a friendly judgment free learning environment. I do expect a student to be committed to their lessons and practice, but build this with care and compassion. Read More
Instruments: Piano Trumpet Organ French Horn Tuba Music Keyboard
Nothing is more rewarding than seeing one of my students develop a passion for music! Therefore, it's important that each student progresses at his or her own pace. I encourage this by setting realistic goals for my students at each lesson. Acknowledging accomplishments helps fuel a students desire to progress, and makes students eager to learn more. By trying to find out what inspires the student, I can successfully tailor my instruction to their wants and needs. Read More
Instruments: Piano Saxophone Flute Clarinet Keyboard
My experience of studio saxophone teaching covers over 40 years and includes time at various New England universities as adjunct faculty at Dartmouth College, the Univ. of New Hampshire, and Univ. of ME at Augusta, as well as my current position at Phillips Exeter Academy, where I am also a member of the Faculty Jazz group. I acquired a Master's in Composition and Saxophone Performance in 1996 from Lesley College in Cambridge, where I spent a year taking lesson with Jerry Bergonzi. Read More

What advice do you have about practicing effectively?
To practice effectively, don’t continue to run what you are good at! Pick apart what you struggle with and wok on that! That is the most effective way to use your time when practicing and will help you improve rapidly.
Does music run in your family? Tell us a little about your musical family members.
Music is very much in my family. My mother used to sing all the time when I was young and played flute and piano. My father played trumpet for the us Air Force. My brother and sister both love music and have played an instrument or sung. The most notable member of my family is my great uncle who is the lead saxophonist in room full of blues.
If you weren't a musician what do you think you'd be doing instead?
If I weren’t a musician, I would be an aerospace engineer. I have always been interested in doing things I first thought impossible, and both music and engineering fit that criteria for me.
What is your favorite style/genre of music to play and why?
Originally I was 100% classical all the time. Very quickly, I found an intense love for musical theater and ever since then, I started to love jazz more and more. This is why I encourage students to expand their horizons. You never know what music you’ll like until you try!
How do I know if my child is ready to start lessons?
If your child is beginning to show interest to start, then it may be time! The most important part of practicing, performing, and rehearsing is motivation. If your child is not interested in music or the arts, it may not be time yet. With this in mind, it is always worth it to bring a child in if they are remotely interested. Learning to sing or an instrument is truly one of the most rewarding parts of the musical process, and they will thank you for introducing them.
When will I start to see results?
After the first one or two lessons, I can guarantee improvement. With any other student I have taught, as long as we work on technique and continue on that path, improvement happens incredibly quickly.
Did you have a teacher that inspired you to go into music? How did they inspire you?
I had 2 teachers that inspired me to go into music. One was my high school band teacher. He always believed his students could succeed or do better no matter their age. In college, when music began to become more of a chore, my choir instructor made it fun again. I learned so much in that course and it inspired me to help others in the same way.
Why did you choose your primary instrument?
I chose voice, piano, and saxophone to be equal primaries. Although I can not do all of them at the same time, singing is the instrument that makes me happy and feel accomplished. I chose saxophone partially because of my uncle (of room full of blues), and it was the "family legacy". Finally, I got dragged into Piano during college. It is required that all music majors of any capacity play some piano, and I became drawn to it through that experience because of its endless compatibility with expressionism.
Have any of your students won awards or been selected for special honors? How have they succeeded?
One of my temporary students was cast in a well known show. One of my students that I am most proud of just became more comfortable with singing, and that to me is a big deal. Finally, a student I’m currently teaching is trying out for the voice in a few weeks!
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 my AFA (Associate in fine arts). I chose this degree as a stepping stone to my Bachelors. I will obtain my Bachelors with in the next year. I am double majoring in Musical Performance and Education with a double minor in theory and composition. Throughout my educational career, I found most of these majors have overlapping credits, etc. I chose to become a well-rounded musician by taking every opportunity and learning everything I can to become the best I can be.
Do you use specific teaching methods or books? (Ex: Alfred, Bastion, Suzuki, Hal Leonard) Why did you choose them if you did?
I use Hal Leonard for beginning students only. After intermediate, I like to pick pieces and work with my students on individual pieces as to give more freedom of choice in what they play.
