I am the students greatest motivator. I love to bring out the best in all of my students and help them discover things about their musical capacities that they never have before. I am highly enthusiastic and believe that every one learns at their own pace. Its never about how quickly you learn something, but about how well you learn it, even if it takes time. I like to acknowledge the students progress and their accomplishments because I believe it helps the student to have the desire to keep learning and progressing. Read More

In 2012, when instructing was new to me, the learning curve on my end was not only vigorous, but extremely rewarding. Seeing the "light bulb" go off inside of student's minds or inspiring even the most unmotivated learner was more than enough to wrap me into private lessons and educating to this day.

Instruments: Guitar, Trombone, Drums, Orchestral Percussion, Djembe

I have a lifelong passion for music, with my passion being in drumming and percussion but having a great deal of experience in trombone and a strong knowledge of guitar as well.  I graduated from Wesleyan University in 2008 with Honors in Music.  I have just recently traveled to Ghana for a 10-month trip to study traditional drumming, Afrobeat drum set style, and more. I also traveled to Ghana in the summers of 2007 and 2008 on grants through Wesleyan allowing me to study traditional drumming more in depth from master drummers there. Read More

It is important to me to get to know each student, and to custom tailor the curriculum for him or her. Method books appropriate to the instrument and level of skill are a large part of my teaching, and I also try to use technology and muti-media to make instruction more interesting and relevant. I use teaching strategies and techniques that help students progress faster with less frustration. I emphasize reading music versus learning by note, and continually look for ways to make lessons interesting, creative, and fun. Read More
