I've been teaching music on and off for almost 20 years I write my own songs and find this a good way to teach as well. I've had many great students, been in many great bands, never fame nor fortune but always fun and great music. My favorite moments are connecting to other people through music. Music is a language unto itself and the best music is a conversation. I've performed on stages around the world but the last few years I've focused on the art of recording and I'm currently building a studio to spend my time creating music and teaching. Read More

Instruments: Piano, Violin

There is really no secret, as with most things in life, the more time you spend on something the better you will get at that thing. Read More

Instruments: Piano, Drums, Orchestral Percussion, Conga, Latin Percussion

I take a very individual approach to my teaching plans- each student has their own attention spans, goals, interests and abilities! When I was first learning piano, I was frustrated by the music choices my teacher was picking for me and this usually made me not in the mood to practice. Over the years I've collected, written and purchased various pieces and exercises for both piano and percussion that allow me to create custom lessons for my students. Read More
