Instruments: Saxophone
Originally from Dallas, TX, I was always interested in music but never thought of it as more than a hobby. I was a solo performer playing shows around the Dallas/Fort Worth area and in a popular Salsa band for years before I finally decided to get back into school and see where this musical journey would take me. In 2017, I graduated with honors from Fort Lewis College and finally in 2020 I received my Masters degree in Jazz Performance and Pedagogy from The University of Colorado-Boulder. Read More
Instruments: Saxophone Flute
I have been honored to teach and also prepare several students in my life. Some of them are today accomplished musicians, others are yet in music schools. For example I have 3 students already in Berklee and another student is in Juliard, NY. Other students, are non musicians wanting to learn saxophone and music. I always adapt my teaching style to their capacities and encourage then to move forward and develop their saxophone skills in order to achieve our mutual goal. Read More

Instruments: Saxophone Flute Clarinet
Nothing is more rewarding than seeing one of my students develop a passion for music! Therefore, it's important that each student progresses at his or her own pace. I encourage this by setting realistic goals for my students at each lesson. Acknowledging accomplishments helps fuel a students desire to progress, and makes students eager to learn more. By trying to find out what inspires the student, I can successfully tailor my instruction to their wants and needs in the style they want to learn. p> Read More

Instruments: Trumpet Trombone Saxophone Flute Clarinet Euphonium French Horn Tuba Oboe
Being a veteran teacher of over four decades I have enjoyed watching my students grow from barely being able to hold a musical instrument to outstanding musicians. As a teacher I make sure that my students learn music fundamentals as well as understand musicianship. Above all, I want my students to love music. I have taught as a music educator in the classroom in five different high school Even though all of them became solid programs each came with a different set of problems. Read More
Instruments: Trumpet
Why did you choose your primary instrument?
My grandfather taught me how to play trumpet when I was eight years old. And then I didn’t play again until high school. Since my middle school didn’t have band, I was highly discouraged from playing my trumpet - the only times I played were the super easy solos from Disney movies for my sister. Once I started high school, I realized I didn’t learn much at all from when I was initially taught how to play. During high school I started to actually learn how to play well and work on exercises; but even then I wasn’t aware of any lessons teachers in my area so I didn’t really care about trumpet that much. A new band director came to my school my senior year and had jazz band, which I really enjoyed but I still gave up on trumpet after high school because I was too afraid to perform. Once I got into college, I was pretty much forced to perform, which made me realize my fear was so easy to overcome! It was then that I realized I was so lucky to have my grandfather give me a trumpet that started a spark in my life; even though it was a little delayed.
What musical accomplishments are you most proud of?
My proudest moment was my senior recital. I organized the entire performance with trumpet literature, some unconvential trumpet literature (Rikai by Adam Cuthbert), vocal jazz, and classical opera. Everything I did in college all came together, and it felt like the culmination of all the hard work I did. Playing in Carnegie Hall was a wonderful experience, just being in the hall was incredible as much it was beautiful; it was an amazing opportunity and a life-changer. I also had the amazing opportunity to tour with the tarleton jazz band in Italy on trumpet and vocals! Another proud moment was playing with the trumpet ensemble at the national trumpet competition. Going there with my friends with whom I worked so hard with was fantastic and it was a once-in-a-lifetime experience. My university gave me a lot of amazing opportunities and I am so grateful.
Have any of your students won awards or been selected for special honors? How have they succeeded?
One of my students advanced to area, and then state in her solo literature! I taught her from day one, when she couldn’t buzz in a mouthpiece. Watching her grow is one of the best and proudest feelings that I’ve ever felt. She had a lot of obstacles and didn’t practice very much in the beginning, but with some hard work and motivation, we made trumpet a priority for her. She was my very first student; and my guinea pig. I grew just as much as she did, me as a teacher, and her as a trumpet player. I love watching my students grow and fall in love with music, and I cant wait to teach more students.
