Instruments: Piano Trumpet Trombone Euphonium French Horn
My professional experience includes trumpet with the Annapolis Symphony Orchestra, the Baltimore Chamber Orchestra, and the Fabulous Fifties Big Band.

I teach in my studio and I travel to family homes. I teach classical, jazz, and gospel music styles. Combining instruction with performance and additional auditions will compliment any student's music experience. Read More
Instruments: Piano Organ Music Keyboard
I discovered my love for music at an early age. Though I started in the children’s choir at church, I began playing the piano by ear at the age of 9. Formal training is due to Morgan State University, which I am scheduled to graduate December 2019. My favorite thing about music is the power it holds and the ability to share experiences and emotions. Teaching the arts is amazing to me because it allows an opportunity to empower another to creatively share their story. Read More
Instruments: Piano Violin Viola
I have been sharing my love of music and teaching students for more than 10 years. I strongly believe in encouraging my students to practice and set up goals that would help them grow. These goals include learning a new challenging piece, getting prepared for a recital, audition or competition. I believe in helping my students with learning how to practice on their own and being able to work independently from our lessons. Read More
Instruments: Piano
I have been teaching piano for 7 years, going on 8 years now. I work with all ages and all skill levels as well. Everyone I teach gets unique style of teaching that best suits them because not everyone learns the same way. I use a variety of lesson books depending on how far advanced they are. Having fun while learning is always my goal, especially when it comes to small children. Read More
Instruments: Piano Saxophone Djembe
I am a passionate, young instructor of the jazz idiom with an emphasis in saxophone, music theory, and hand percussion.Gorwing up, I had grew close to an elderly couple how gave me a music lesson scholarship where they both taught me the art of Jazz starting at the age of 12. I had also began playing classical saxophone in elementary school and continued throughout school as a also took Jazz piano lessons. Read More
Instruments: Piano Guitar Voice Drums Bass Guitar
Since I took my first piano lessons as a child, I've dedicated my life to learning as much as I can about music both inside and outside of school and spreading the joy to others. I have been performing consistently with groups since my teen years: first jazz combos, ensembles and University orchestras, and more recently rock and metal acts. I have extensive experience touring, and encourage students to draw on my knowledge as both a studio and live performer. Read More
Instruments: Piano Cello Drums Conga Latin Percussion Djembe
I find that as useful as many of the methods that I have found most useful for my own performance are, almost every one of my students in drums, percussion and cello requires a different blend of study materials. As a general rule, I rely on providing a balance of classic (some teachers go as far as to say 'canonical') books, and a wide variety of unique listening and independence exercises I've developed over the years.

What advice do you have about practicing effectively?
Practicing is what you make of it. Each time you do so clear your mind of all distractions so that way you can concentrate on the task at hand. Remember that practicing is not a chore or job. It's only how to want to perceive it. It can be like pulling teeth if your effort is lacking. It can be a walk in the park if your focus is correct. I for one didn't care for it when I first started. That being said, the older I got and more recitals/gigs I did, you bet I wanted to practice. Take your time, don't get frustrated, and have fun.
Why did you choose your primary instrument?
Piano is my primary. The love and passion I have for it knows no bounds. I started at age 5 because my brother was getting candy for lessons. As a child I wanted candy as well. As I got older being able to play last at recitals, gigs, church specials, weddings, I where I really and truly blossomed. The art and grace of the piano comes from within my heart and mind. I would never make another instrument my bread and butter. To me personally the piano speaks to the heart and soul more than any other music instrument.
What is your favorite style/genre of music to play and why?
Classical is my favorite to play. This is where ALL music genres have come from. Whether it is country, pop, rock, jazz, hip hop, etc. Music started with Mozart, Beethoven, Bach. Each piece or movement of a song tells us a story. Whether sad, happy, melancholy, joyful. It truly paints a picture of vivid colors and imagination. Tying all the elements together from strings to percussion, to woodwinds and brass. Each period in classical music differs from one another. This is why we have so many different genres in today's music.
If you play more than one instrument, how did you decide to start playing the second? (Or 3rd, 4th, 5th, etc)!
I joined my school orchestra at 12 wanting to be an accompanist for them. Little did I know that I would take up violin and viola. I was absolutely terrible at both of them until I started to take lessons and incorporate what I was learning in piano to the other stringed instruments. My strive for greatness in all 3 was unimaginable. I wanted to be the best at them all. Each one gave me something different. The piano was my full orchestra on 88 keys, but the violin and viola where more personal because of how hard they are to play.
Does music run in your family? Tell us a little about your musical family members.
Music is extremely strong in my family. My brother and I are the most gifted/talented. We have done over 20 weddings and 100s of church services. He is a orchestra professor in a different state and plays 7 instruments including (his main) cello, electric and acoustic guitar and drums. You can just imagine the fun my parents had with my brother and I playing all the time. My mother took piano and guitar when she was young and my father was part of the school choir. Music is a cornerstone in my family.
