Instruments: Piano Guitar Bass Guitar Banjo Music Electric Guitar Classical Guitar Acoustic Guitar
I have been teaching guitar professionally for over 25 years. Aside for teaching guitar on the college level at Lourdes University, I have taught for BeInstrumental, Non-Majors at the University of Toledo, along with my own private studio. My professional performance experience along with my education has lead me to the point where I have found no student that I can not teach. It brought me great pleasure when I would teach my teachers something new. Read More
Instruments: Piano Voice
I discovered my musical interests and performance abilities through private piano lessons, dance classes, private voice lessons, and musical theatre acting workshops. I began my teaching experience as an assistant instructor/choreographer for the StarBright! Youth Musical Theatre classes at a local community theatre. During my undergraduate studies, I was an opera acting coach at Baldwin Wallace under Opera Director, Benjamin Wayne Smith. I privately coached voice performance students to assist them with role preparation and audition repertoire. Read More
Instruments: Piano Oboe Bassoon
I have always had an eclectic love for all things music, and enthusiastically share it with anyone who will have me! There was a piano in my house growing up and I couldn't stay away. In school, I studied oboe and bassoon. Eventually I just explored any instrument that caught my interest- guitar, trumpet, ocarinas, panflutes, etc. I spent a lot of time doing musical theatre, and studied voice for a time as well.

Instruments: Piano Voice
For young and beginning vocalists, I will typically start with assigning and working on American Art song, spirituals, folk music, songs from 24 Italian Songs, and musical theatre repertoire. I tailor my choices to each student, as each student has a different voice and way of learning. For the more advanced or experienced vocalists, I will assign classical and romantic art song of different languages and operatic arias. Once again, my choices will be tailored to each individual student. Read More
Instruments: Piano
I began teaching when I started studying with Berklee. Admittedly, I wasn't entirely sure how to take on such a job, but soon discovered that it was something that came naturally to me, and something I enjoyed doing. I have taught students of varying levels, from a complete beginner unable to read any music, to someone who was able to sightread proficiently. I like to take the time to know what my student's goals are, and help them work towards achieving them. Read More
Instruments: Piano Voice Keyboard
Why did you choose your primary instrument?
Well, my story is a little different. My church wanted a pianist so they sent me to lessons. I began lessons a little late in the 7th grade at age 10. Once I started music lessons I loved music so much that I practiced every chance I got even during break and lunch times which contributed to my advancement in music. I started with a wonderful teacher who was warm, friendly and like a mother. She made everyone feel like they were part of a big family and she did it very naturally. Her family was a musical family so it came natural for her to cultivate the love and passion for music in her students.
What musical accomplishments are you most proud of?
In 2016, I was chosen to be the Principal Accompanist for the World Premiere Grady-Rayam Gala of the Negro Spiritual Scholarship Foundation. This opportunity allowed me to perform with world-class opera Singer Stephanie Washington.
In April 2017, I traveled to Nashville Tennessee, to compete in the James A. Hefner HBCU Piano Competition at Tennessee State University. I won the top two prizes of the competition. The first prize was 500 dollars for best overall performance and the second was 250 dollars for the best performance of a piece played by an African American composer. You can find a performance of the piece on my profile and here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=h-ydW8BgSVA
What do you think is the hardest thing to master on your instrument?
Well, virtuosity is hardest thing to master on the instrument. Virtuosity covers mastery of the instrument in all ways both technically and musically. Obtaining control, finger strength and dexterity, mastery of tension release, mastery of physical gestures, mastery of genres/styles, mastery of energized and active fingers and knuckles, mastery of finger placement/lower-upper arm movement, mastery of musical depth and understanding, interpretation, mastery of technique and practicing effectively are all contributors to obtaining virtuosity which in my opinion, is the hardest thing to master on the instrument.
Do you use specific teaching methods or books? (Ex: Alfred, Bastion, Suzuki, Hal Leonard) Why did you choose them if you did?
Alfred, Bastion, Suzuki, Hal Leonard, Faber, John Thompson are method books that I use within my lessons because I believe they best represent the quality of music instruction I like my students to experience. More importantly, I used several of the method books in my own musical upbringing which helped to cultivate me into the pianist I am today. Also, an important feature of these method books is that they provide gradual, step by step instruction which lessons, especially for beginner should follow.
