Teaching Philosophy: "My goal is to equip my students with the confidence and tools they need to achieve their goals, all while enjoying the process. Through building a foundation of technique, music theory, and practice habits, I hope to impress a love for excellence and inspire students to dream big. I am passionate about teaching a wide range of genres as well as arranging, writing, and improvisation, fostering well-rounded musicians who are ready to take on any musical opportunity. At the end of the day, I want my students to enjoy making music and feel accomplished."
