VOICE / SINGING In teaching voice and singing, my voice students receive a CD with vocal exercises that build up a singer's technique. I also hold one sheet handouts I give my voice students. Each sheet has a particular vocal skill to train. Also in teaching the voice, I use my recording studio. Sometimes a voice student can develop their vowels better if the song is in different paces, I use my recording studio and give the voice student a CD of the different tempos of the song. Read More

My personal style of teaching come from more than 20 years of experience on it. I will taylor a different plain of study for each student, from absolute beginners to the Advanced level. For early childhood i will use the Orff Shulwerk model of musical education , very funny and easy to learn. We will start to write together our own music after the first lesson! For older students i will reach their highest level in short time too, starting from the basic elements of music to arrive to a concert level. Read More

I focus on several different areas for every student, so that he/she can keep progressing in all areas of technic and musical knowledge: WARM-UPs, SCALES, MUSIC THEORY, SIGHTREADING, and PREPARED PIECES. And as all music students 'should', it's important to build a good habit of practicing with a metronome. My experience in both the civilian and military music communities has given me a very open-minded but direct approach to WHAT you should learn, and HOW FAST you should be able to progress each individual student.

I began teaching privately and working with area high school marching bands during college in 2002. After graduation, I taught public school before transitioning to another job in the music industry. I've continued to teach privately in my church studio and students homes for the past 7 and a half years. Regular practice and lesson consistency shows how fast students can progress. My biggest goal is to assure my students the excitement when playing their instrument. Read More

When did you decide to become a professional musician? Was it a gradual decision or was there a defining moment for you?
By age 12 I was becoming serious about music. I formed a band with my friends and we used to practice in my parent's garage. I was always pushing to practice more. I had a drive to want to sound better right from the beginning. I'm not sure exactly where that desire came from. I always took music seriously. But I loved baseball too and had dreams of playing for the St. Louis Cardinals. Around age 16 or 17 I began to lean more on music than baseball. I wasn't thinking of it as a career but gradually music began to define nearly everything I did.
Does music run in your family? Tell us a little about your musical family members.
My younger brother sings and plays guitar, bass and piano. We've written songs together and had a band. No one before us in our family played (that I'm aware of). But we grew up with music in our house. My father had an incredible vinyl collection. Motown, The Beatles, Elvis, Phil Spector's records. Music was always playing around the house. I remember studying the album artwork as the record played. I wanted to know how was in the band and what instruments they played. I wanted to learn who produced the records and who wrote the songs. I loved growing up in a house full of music.
If you play more than one instrument, how did you decide to start playing the second? (Or 3rd, 4th, 5th, etc)!
From the guitar, I picked up most things with strings: bass, ukulele, etc. I can also play piano and sing. Once I learned the guitar, I didn't find it too difficult to move on to other instruments. The basic theory of chords, scales and keys was the same. As I stated above, when I learn a song I listen to all the parts. So after I learn the guitar part, I'll study what the drums and bass are doing. I'll study the lyrics and vocal melody. I'm interested in how each part works together to create the sound of the band.
What is your favorite style/genre of music to play and why?
I enjoy so many different styles of music it's impossible for me to choose one. One of the exciting things about technology is we have moved into a post-genre time in music. I listen to it all. I listen to The Smiths and Radiohead and Ryan Adams and Wilco and Segovia and Django and Willie Nelson, Dylan and The Beatles. I love Bach and Debussy. I tend to pull from all these genres as I play and write. Prince has been a big influence on me. He wrote and performed within so many disparate styles of music.
