I've touched on this briefly above, but, my main focus in teaching a student is always to help them find their own musical voice.

Every student no matter the age must have a solid foundation of fundamentals. If the technical foundation doesn’t exist, then it is much harder to play music that we love. Development doesn’t happen overnight, but rather it is a lifelong process.

I am interested in helping others experience the joy of making music. I began playing trumpet at age 11 and went on to play and teach professionally. I reached much success in high school when I was awarded the first chair in the Alabama All-State Band. I then went on to study to be both a performer and educator in college. After graduating, I settled in Nashville, TN where I played professionally from 1979-1997 with Gaylord/Opryland Productions, Nashville, TN. Read More
