Instruments: Piano Voice Accordion Keyboard
Music lessons will certainly broaden the students knowledge of music. It has been proven through scientific study that the study of music will improve the individuals cognitive ability and aids in brain development. Children who study music develop higher math and problem solving skills. Age is not a factor as we are never to old to learn. My students range in age from 5 years old to well into their 70’s, many of whom simply want to improve their skills or recapture the joy of making music. The study and enjoyment of music can and often becomes a life long adventure whether its just for fun or as a career. Read More
Instruments: Piano Guitar Voice
I like to make sure that my students are actually learning the exercises rather than just going through the motions. If I find them making mistakes I stop them and ask them to explain to me what they are supposed to be doing. This helps me pinpoint whether they need further teaching or just more practice. I am very careful to try to catch and correct bad habits early before they become ingrained. Read More
Instruments: Piano Voice Saxophone Organ
I also has a strong professional record of success. In addition to my formal education, I have both recorded and performed as an RB and Gospel artist. I currently work as the worship leader for a church, where I directs, play, and sing. Read More
Instruments: Piano Violin Viola
I am a passionate and motivated instructor who loves working with students and sharing my love of music. I graduated from Kansas Wesleyan University in May of 2019 with a Bachelor of Arts degree in Music Theory and Composition. while there, I also studied violin and piano under renowned musicians and instructors. I had the opportunity to play in a national award-winning university orchestra, filling the roles of assistant concertmaster and principal second violin at various times. Read More

Lastly, support and accountability are also integral parts of my teaching style. Even in individual lessons, I foster a supportive environment, offering resources like mp3 practice tracks, youtube videos, and other homework to keep students engaged and track their progress. I also provide regular feedback and encouragement to ensure continuous improvement. Lastly, I do weekly and multiple times a week check-in's with my students to encouragement and ensure they feel supported to continue making progress. Read More
Instruments: Piano Drums
For beginning students I typically start with fundamentals and basic sticking or chording. For experienced students I begin with what they know and look for areas of strength. Read More

Instruments: Trombone
What advice do you have about practicing effectively?
- turn off the TV or internet when practicing. Focus!
- 5 minutes a day of focused practice is better than an hour of just messing around.
- be sure to play some music....not just a bunch of exercises all the time!
- play scales slowly at first in order to hear your tuning and pitches. Speed can come later.
- rest when tired. Then, do some more.
- use a metronome quite often
- use play-along recording
- record yourself once in awhile (use phone, iPad, digital recorder, etc.)
Best advice ever:
If you miss one day, you'll know it. You miss two days, your teacher knows. Miss three....the audience knows it!
How do I know if my child is ready to start lessons?
They should want to do it to some degree. If they're forced into it, they won't enjoy themselves and will end up resenting music lessons.
For trombone, being 'too small' could be a problem, unfortunately. Maybe they need to start on the trumpet if they're too young to physically pick up a trombone. But, you could buy a lightweight 'P-Bone' (made of plastic...and it plays!)
When will I start to see results?
Beginners: within 30 minutes. (expectations have to be realistic with beginners. If they get off to a good start with lessons, then they'll know what to work on in order to make some progress.
High school students: if they don't take the horn home from school and practice, well....sorry....it'll be erratic progress.
Adults: with dedication, they could be playing in any kind of ensemble they dream of within 5 years at a totally professional level. Maybe even sooner. They could have the stamina to play in a simple rock band horn section in a year if they kept at it...again, maybe sooner. Every individual is different.
* sometimes, having a teacher help you find a better mouthpiece that works for you and your horn can be a 'miracle cure'! I've gone through the mouthpiece search many times, and I know that it is vitally important to have a mouthpiece that works for you....not against you!
Did you have a teacher that inspired you to go into music? How did they inspire you?
My mother....she was a professional piano player/teacher/accompanist.
I grew up listening to great music from birth. After high school, I was 'lost' in thinking of what to do or study. Then, a light bulb came on inside me....music!....it's what I'm always listening to and thinking of anyways.
My mother helped me get caught up on my music theory in order to audition for university music school.
And, she played for my recitals as well. Couldn't have done it without her!
