Then we would play through whatever new groove or song I had assigned them last week and critique it. I would then end the lesson with questions and also some fun improvisational exercises. It is my hope that when students leave lessons with me, and move on to the next phase of their musical journey, that no area of their musicianship is deficient. A good musician is a dedicated, hardworking well rounded musician. Read More

I'm an extremely dedicated and passionate performing artist, composer, and instructor with a BM in Jazz Studies from the USC Thornton School of Music. I love all aspects of playing, teaching, and writing music, but my favorite part is sharing my passion with others and watching a similar passion grow in themselves. I have been playing saxophone for about 12 years, flute and clarinet for 7, and drums and piano for the past 3 years (so I can only accept beginning drum and piano students.) I love all types of music and will work with you on any genre you want to work on while improving your overall facility on your instrument! Read More

"What ever works for you" .. is my motto. As long as we are free from distractions, we are able to make progress during the lesson, so you as a student are getting a quality lesson. Read More
