I am a very passionate and motivated instructor for not only music but trumpet as well. Im originally from New Mexico and began my career as a professional musician in 2015.

This is a checklist for being a stud at Trumpet: Get that air goin', and the blood pumpin'! Read More

I let the student guide me from there. If they want to play jazz, we will learn jazz standards, how to read chord charts, and improvisation. If they want to perform classical solo or orchestral literature, we will focus on developing their classical trumpet sound and increasing the artistry and technical demands of the repertoire they perform. More advanced students typically already have an idea of what they want to do and I let them guide me and teach based on the goals they want to accomplish. Read More
