Background & Experience

I have been teaching private horn and trumpet lessons since 2018. Prior to that, I taught Beginning Band, Choir, and General Music at a public school in the south suburbs. My own school and teaching experience has shown me that many students do not receive a well rounded musical diet of theory, pedagogy, and individualized instruction in a school band setting. These are all areas that I seek to help my students with by meeting them wherever they are, and providing them with instruction and encouragement to get them to where they want to go.
