Out of school, I am the music director of an all male acapella group, "Note to Self." This will be my second year in this position and I am so excited to keep making music with these guys in the coming school year. We sing in a variety of genres of music. I play piano and sing in a jam band with a group of my good friends, we play music like Steely Dan and Grateful Dead. Read More

There are several different method books that I like to use with my students based on age, knowledge/experience, and of course if the method book they use is something they will enjoy; it's very difficult if a student doesn't like the book they're using so I try to give them options.

I encourage students to practice on a regular basis, write in their music (if necessary), ask for help (communication with what is and isn't working is key to success), and to work in a step by step system to learning music.

As a teacher it has always been my goal to inspire my students to connect with music in a meaningful way.

There is no greater joy that seeing a student take on a challenge and conquer it. It is that positive feeling of success that motivates my students to continue taking lessons and learning which is amazing to see. Read More
