Each person is unique. I like to start my lessons by getting to know my students through assessing where their passion(s) lie. I know that each student progresses at their own pace. I help them set realistic goals through the development of lessons that serve as a measurement for growth. I believe in giving positive reinforcement to my students because as fun as playing the music is, I find that it can be a tough process when trying to learn. Read More

As a teacher I can help you grow your abilities on your instrument. Help you achieve the cool warm sound you want from the saxophone. Help you get the dexterity on the instrument you need. And get a more broad understanding of how music is played and created. Throughout my career since I was 16 years old I have taught children, teenagers and adults from beginners to advanced levels.

Why did you choose your primary instrument?
Because was what it was accessible at my house. Also my dad played guitar with so much taste that got me exited at a very young age. He was exited for me to learn and he considered very difficult task to learn guitar and even more for a kid that wants to play other kind of games too. I finished having guitar reunions with my dad and cancelling my other kind of games reunions that I use to have with my friends. Dad said that if I learn to play guitar he will get me a guitar for me so he did. After he thought all the songs and knowledge he had. He said now you are ready to go to private lessons with the best musician in town that we were lucky that my new teacher was an old friend of my family and the best musician in town.
What musical accomplishments are you most proud of?
I' m proud to play in big venues as theaters and big performance halls for concerts. Play and collaborate with amazing musicians. Being accepted by important musicians, producers and composers. Hard work and passion pays off. I m grateful for all the work and collaborations but for some reason I fell very proud to be able to expand my knowledge in music to the point of learning hundreds of instruments. Compose and record all kinds of music. It really seem impossible to accomplish what I have accomplish in music. Hard work pays off.
Have any of your students won awards or been selected for special honors? How have they succeeded?
Yes my students have been able to incorporate with good and famous bands playing in important venues. As for recording their own material with their creations. Others have achieve being accepted by renowned music schools and conservatories. Some others have enjoyed joining the art of teaching. As with engineering and producing, my students have achieve work for Tv, working in a recording studio or doing demos and commercials for their clients. Some of my students had achieved to perform in gigs with me.
What do you think is the hardest thing to master on your instrument?
Every instrument as any profession in life has easiest possibilities and hardest posibillities. Piano has more independence than guitar. In piano you could be playing a totally different parts in each hand. So Piano is more difficult for independence but is easy to know the name of the notes all over the keyboard seeing it very clear all the notes. In the guitar can be difficult to figure it out the name of a group of notes further in the fret board. The difficult thing of voice is that you don't see your instrument. In voice tuning can be difficult compare with other instruments that just by moving the hardware of a guitar can find the tuning you are looking. But in voice your ears, your health, your feelings can influence in your voice. You can sound out of tune cause your voice is tired or sick.
