From the first day in college i have been giving private lessons to other musicians in my department. I was noticed right away for my musical ability and people always wanted to study with me. Me being a section leader for the marching band gave me a chance to exercise my teaching skills dealing with more than 20 trumpet players at a time. I love teaching students that have the ambition and determination to make their dreams come true.  Growing up poor all i had was my trumpet and i used it as a tool to succeed.  When people hear me play they hear passion, and that is what i teach, the expressive element of the horn.

For beginning students i like to cover the fundamentals. It is important to get the students abilities and mind growing.  Fundamentalsare the most important part of musical ability. For intermediate students I tend to introduce my methods of how I began my journey as a trumpet player with a program I call A.L.L.S.T.A.R. The objective is to create habits that will help trumpet players grow into well rounded players.  With adults I like to understand what they want from their music and help in any way i can wether it be theory, ideas, repetoir.  My goal is to improve the player as well as learn from them as well.
