Instruments: Piano Guitar Voice Keyboard Electric Guitar Classical Guitar Acoustic Guitar
My teaching experience goes back to my high school days. After I learned how to play guitar and played in a few bands, I knew that persuading a career in music was my passion. I taught a few students at my home and after high school attended Southern Union where I graduated with an associate in arts degree. In 1976 I graduated from Auburn University with a BS in Music Education. Read More
Instruments: Piano Organ Synthesizer Accordion
I have been playing keyboards since I was 7 years old, starting with the accordion. As I grew older I began playing all other keyboard instruments. I have been playing in multiple venues and genres for over 30 years, and teaching for as long. I am very passionate about my craft, and truly enjoy passing my love for music and my knowledge of music to anyone wanting to learn. Read More
Instruments: Piano Guitar Drums
I always approach teaching on an individual basis. I find out what the student loves about music, and what made him or her want to learn in the first place. We set realistic goals for pace and have fun. I often mix traditional work with fun work. For example, alongside conventional ways to learn melody and harmony, I'll tie those lessons into specific songs or pieces of music that the student likes, to show the relevance of the material and the importance it has, at the same time keeping the student interested.

I began teaching lessons in college. Most of my early students were elementary-school aged and novice. There, I learned that regular practice must be encouraged to allow interest to begin to pique and passion begin to form. I firmly believe that hard work and discipline go much further than talent alone. I also firmly believe in fun! My most deeply seeded goal is for my students to develop a life-long love and practice of music! Read More

The method used for teaching a student how to enjoy music should be practical, intuitive, and natural. I begin by training a student how to listen (in the same way that a child would hear words before he could speak). From that point, a student learns to "speak" or play musical sentences. Finally, the reading skills are developed. Through this approach, musical literacy is founded and then the art of mastering the instrument begins by developing sensitivity and fine musicianship.

I am a multi-instrumentalist seeking to share my talents with the world! I graduated from the University of Kentucky in 2016 with a Master of Music degree in Music Therapy and in 2012 graduated from the University of Louisville with a Bachelor of Music in Oboe Performance. I love performing music, teaching music, and providing music therapy services. I have played in oboe recitals, high school musicals, church services, open mic nights, tribute bands, hospitals, nursing homes, and performed at Carnegie Hall. Read More

What advice do you have about practicing effectively?
Practice every day, even when you don't want to! The phrase "practice makes perfect" is true- the more you practice, the more skilled you'll become! It is important to practice a little every day. Studies show that if you practice a little each day, you'll be more skilled than if you were to practice everything in one day. This helps remember a little at a time. So don't wait until the last minute- practice for at least 10 minutes a day, and you'll be a pro in no time! I am happy to give you practice tips so you can meet all of your goals!
What is your dream piece to perform and why?
My favorite piece to perform was definitely "Habanera" from the opera, Carmen. Carmen is sassy and confident and embodies all a sassy opera star wishes to be! I got to use my entire vocal range and hone in on my acting skills. It was the first piece I performed in Master Class in college, and I was so shy to get up on stage. After performing, I felt so much more confident and was able to perform any piece because I had gotten over the hump! This piece will always be special to me and will hold an important place in my heart!
If you have a Music Degree, what is it in (Performance, Education, Musicology, Theory, Composition, etc) and why did you choose that degree?
I chose my degree, Bachelor of Arts in Music, because it was the most versatile. My school only had a degree in classical voice, and I wanted to study a wide range of styles. I did not desire to be an opera singer, and I did not want my focus to only be on classical voice. I learned piano and guitar and practiced all styles of music- including classical, opera, musical theatre, pop, jazz, and rock. This made me more knowledgeable of different types of music, and it made me realize that the same fundamentals of vocal technique apply to each style of singing!
Have any of your students won awards or been selected for special honors? How have they succeeded?
I am incredibly proud of my student, Yana. She has won multiple awards in voice for multiple categories! She entered the American Protege competition and won first place in classical voice with the song "Nel Cor Piu Non Mi Sento". Additionally, she competed in many different categories- including self-accompaniment, pop, and musical theatre. I teach a wide variety of styles of voice and will teach you how to accompany yourself on piano and guitar, so you can go out there and start winning awards and competitions, too!
