Instruments: Piano

My number one goal as a teacher is to help my students develop as musicians and give them the tools they need to reach their goals as musicians. I don't have a fixed method that I use on my students.

For the first lesson, I try to learn as much about the student as possible so I can form a method and style for that student. Read More

Hi, My name is Will. I love working with beginner students as well as those who have already developed their musical skills.

Instruments: Piano, Trumpet, Trombone

Teaching music is one of my greatest joys. I love being able to help students of all ages unlock the mysteries of playing music. I have been playing the trumpet since age 10, and after graduating from the University of Oregon in 2001, I auditioned to play for Thomas Mapfumo and the Blacks Unlimited from Zimbabwe. For the next ten years, I toured North America, Europe and Africa. When I wasn't on the road with Thomas and the band, I led my own jazz groups, played in Salsa and Hip-Hop acts, and taught trumpet and trombone lessons in Eugene and Portland, OR. Read More
