Instruments: Piano Trumpet Trombone Recorder Euphonium Tuba Music
For beginning students who are children, I typically start with Hal Leonard's Essential Elements. Once the student has progressed to have a grasp of the fundamentals, I will begin to introduce solo repertoire appropriate for their first recital performance. For adults, I try to find out what the student is interested in, and guide my instruction accordingly to keep the lessons engaging and fun, no matter their ability level. My students are encouraged to enter competitions and recitals, as well as work on composing their own original material, so they can feel good about their accomplishments and stay motivated to learn.

Every student has the ability to learn and understand music at any level, as long as the teacher knows how to key-into that ability of that student, in order to teach the student. In other words, very person in the world has a motivating factor, or reason of interest, in whatever they do. The same applies to music knowledge acquisition. This, i take the advantage of, in order to bring the student to the point of learning where, motivation becomes personal as the student appreciates the learning process. Read More

Instruments: Piano
I am a qualified and professional music teacher with a passion for sharing all things musical. I believe that music can change lives for the better. I thrive to equip students with the skills that will see them excel no matter which path they choose to take in music. I want my students to be able to open any music book and play what ever it is that makes them happy. Read More
Instruments: Piano Voice
Piano students: I usually use the Piano Adventures method, as I find it very methodical and balanced. In each class we do exercises to improve technique, sightreading, and performance along with music theory exercises. In a second part of the lesson we work on the songs having as main goal the creation of a repertoire that the student can play later to family and friends. I like to include some singing in my piano lessons too. Read More

When did you decide to become a professional musician? Was it a gradual decision or was there a defining moment for you?
Once I was in college I started picking up gigs on drumset in cover bands around the Houston area and playing at various churches. When I moved to Brenham this continued and I recorded on several studio sessions along the way as well as being a choral scholar (which was paid). From there I started my own band and continue to sing, play and teach for a living. I knew from an early age this is what I would be doing and I was very lucky to have family and friends that believed in my work and talents.
If you weren't a musician what do you think you'd be doing instead?
If I weren't a musician I would most likely see myself as a chef or a personal trainer. My love for food is boundless and endless and I would love to study culinary traditions around the world one day. Cooking reminds me of music in that there are so many possible ingredients and ways to prepare food but the joy is in the simple common processes that lead to the same end result: eating a delicious meal.
Diet and exercise are very important to me so teaching others about healthy eating and fitness would be a natural extension of that.
What is your favorite style/genre of music to play and why?
My favorite style of music to play is improvisation in which nobody says or communicates what they are playing except through their playing in real time. I have learned so much from countless hours of this type of improvised jam mentality with my peers through the years. There is something unexplainable about the rush of energy that can happen when everything is clicking on all cylinders, everyone is fully engaged in listening and noone is overplaying their respective instruments. I highly recommend musicians to spend time improvising!
If you play more than one instrument, how did you decide to start playing the second? (Or 3rd, 4th, 5th, etc)!
I was seemingly born into this world singing and for the first 10 years of my life that was my main instrument. I decided to start playing percussion (which includes many instruments) to be in the school band because I was already exposed to alot of band music from my grandfather and thought it would be amazing to be a part of. Along the way I started playing more and more piano and by college I was really increasing my practice time on all of the instruments and diving deep into music theory partly so that I could better write my own music.
Does music run in your family? Tell us a little about your musical family members.
Luckily I am blessed to have some musical family members starting with my grandfather who was a singer in choirs growing up and had a deep love for jazz and classical music. My mother was a saxophone player up until college and showed me some great music. My brother is a singer who plays guitar and today is also a middle school choir teacher in Franklin, Tennessee. My younger sister is a great singer and hearing her always challenged me to be better at what I do. All of my lovely family has inspired me in some way to be a better person and musician.
What is your dream piece to perform and why?
My dream piece to perform on drumset is The Black Page by Frank Zappa and any Vinnie Coliauta transcription. Every time I hear Vinnie Coliauta play I am blown away by his combination of musicality. technicality, fearlessness and his ability to make you shake your head.
For piano it would probably be anything from the Well-Tempered Clavier by J.S. Bach. simply because there is not one note out of place in the layered counterpoint contained in those 24-pieces. The independence required in this music is akin to an expert-level drumset player.
What does a normal practice session look like for you?
Believe it or not, half of my practice is spent intensely listening to as much great music as possible. This keeps me inspired and informs my time spent practicing on my instrument because I am subconsciously going to strive for a level that matches what the music I listen to sounds like. Most of my practice sessions on drumset include warmups from Stick Control followed by learning transcriptions from my personal collection. Piano practice always includes 2-hand scales and arpeggios and sight reading. Other than that, every session is a different experience.
