I have been teaching since High School, but it wasn't until my first year of college that I started teaching music. After 6+ years of teaching in my home studios in both Austin and San Antonio, I enjoy a variety of students learning violin, viola, cello, piano, guitar, and even certain music software. My greatest lesson in teaching is that no two students are alike; one student may be more traditional and focused and have no problem learning to read music, for example, while another student may have little to no attention span, making it impossible to learn consistently.

I'm an experienced and caring instructor who loves to see students empowered in their own creativity and excellence. I received my Bachelor's in Music Education from Ithaca College in 1988. I have recorded and released three projects so far that have received radio play internationally and been on the charts on college public radio. My travels performing music in the U.S. and beyond have enriched my life immeasurably and I love sharing the spark of imagination with my students. Read More

My teaching style is very adaptive to the abilities and interest of each student. I always try to keep my students motivated and positive because it is very important to be upbeat to learn music. From beginners to professional players, every musician needs passion to excel in the field and I encourage that by keeping my lessons very interactive and interesting. Read More

My biggest hope for my students is that they come away from lessons with a love for music. Every student is a unique player with their own pace, set of hurdles, focus, and interests, and I am committed to tailoring my teaching approach to each individual student. It is important to me that each student progresses at a realistic pace for themselves, tries their best, and has fun with the music they are learning. Read More
Instruments: Piano Guitar Violin
I like to teach at the student's pace or what their parents have in mind. When I learned piano, my parents wanted me to learn at a high pace, and forced me to rush everything. As a result, I was able to play a lot of pieces, but the quality of the songs were not the best. I ended up slowing down and spent time to actually work on the tiny details of each song. Read More
Instruments: Violin Viola
Each of my students is an individual with specific needs. I learn from all of them to help me be a better teacher, but keep in mind that they will have different strengths and proceed at different rates - and that's okay! I also believe that learning the violin is not a race to the end of book 10, but rather a journey, and that each student's place along that journey comes in many shades of grey. Read More
Instruments: Violin
I teach mainly out of the string builder series. After the student shows some progress I will introduce some solo pieces and maybe some studies to practice. My method really revolves around the student since everyone advances at their own pace. Some other method books could be Kreutzer, Sevcik, and wohlfhart. Some early pieces I could introduce would be Arcangelos Corelli's violin sonatas. Read More

Have any of your students won awards or been selected for special honors? How have they succeeded?
My first student captured first place in the Orlando School of Rock n Roll. He started as a beginner with me where we played together during our sessions. I allowed him to venture more into new territory musically, where he then saw the light and subsequently went on to become a music teacher himself while expanding his talent, his view of music, and became passionate about guitar playing.
What musical accomplishments are you most proud of?
My best musical accomplishment , other than being fortunate to play next to great musicians has been my sense of playing with feeling, with dynamics that convey the emotion of the song to an audience or another person. My current passion is to not fill the musical space with notes, but play sparingly. BB King said"It's not what you play, its what you don't play." My best accomplishment if to learn when to fill the space, and when not to. That is what gives music life and takes it out of the notes on paper where it is possible to convey emotion to the people you are playing for.
What do you think is the hardest thing to master on your instrument?
For me, I feel there is so much to still learn to master an instrument, any instrument.
The hardest thing to do is not getting in a rut. I love rock, swing, jazz, a great symphony. When you see the best musicians play, it is easy to get discouraged. '
So, I try to learn one small thing I can incorporate into my playing that helps me on improve my playing. l suggest to my students to go to YouTube to watch others play, then take the simple instructions on how to play it. Many songs and genres are available and frankly, very helpful.
Why did you choose your primary instrument?
In the beginning my primary instrument was the piano because my mother played and seemed to enjoy it so much. Then, in my teen years I was inspired by the Beatles, Hermin Hermits and other popular groups of the 60's. Then, I learned the electric guitar. Loved it. I joined a band consisting of learning musicians like myself.
I played lead guitar playing at the Gulfport Casino and other teen dances. Eventually, I joined other bands like the Tempests and the Emotions, who were sought after throughout Florida teen dance establishments. This time was exciting musically, in both guitar playing and singing, as well as learning playing with feeling and song variations.
