He helped me get into detail of what singing was all about and it really motivated me to practice real hard. He really showed me the complexities of my voice which I thought I couldn’t do. Definitely coming back for more lessons

FAQs

What is your typical process for working with a new customer?

I have been playing and studying music all my life. I have my A.A. degree in music and have studied with renowned musicians from Julliard like Dr. Art Davis. I have been teaching now for over 15 years at various music schools, high school, community centers, college, as well as privately.
How did you get started doing this type of work?
I started while in college studying for my music major and it's been over 15 years now.
