Introduction
My experience performing and composing for a wide range of musical styles has informed me in ways that many musicians are not, due to their limited abilities and stylistic preferences. My foundation in jazz studies has proved to be the source which has facilitated my ease at assimilating other musical styles as well as sustained my career as a professional musician. I am also sought out due to my extensive background in composition, harmony and songwriting and students discover that they can study multiple topics with me instead of seeking out new teachers for each additional topic they choose to study. I am also a graduate of Berklee College of Music with a dual degree in Piano Performance & Jazz Composition, and not only have I implemented much of Berklee's curriculum in my teaching studio, but I also prepare students who are looking to audition for Berklee, as well as test out of core curriculum classes. The advanced and intense Berklee curriculum gives my students an opportunity to apply this profound material in any musical style they desire. Well, I love music!!! and everything about music....so that makes talking and teaching about it even better! I also love seeing students reactions to materials and topics that they've never heard of, or used before. Usually, there is the "light bulb effect", when they realize that these items or tools are the exact things they need to achieve a certain sound, or that they've heard something for a long time and have never been able to identify it, etc....Once that happens, then they take that information and make it their own and return with their approach to the music. Their approach informs me in a way that I may not have thought of, and so, having students is a reciprocal learning experience.

Very professional and definitely the right choice to make for a tutor. Highly recommended for Berklee students and just over knowledge for musical structure and theory.

Carmen is seasoned; intuitive; his ear training is identified quickly. Chord exchanges; inversions; and arranging my compositions with harmony function. A concept that I'm very excited to sink my teeth into. Makes for an amazing transition with ridiculous framework for my signature style
