About

I am an active performer and music producer, in addition to being an educator. Given my extensive experience in professional performance, production, and recording, I can offer my students the perspective of an active and effective industry professsional.

I am currently working/have worked with several Grammy award winning producers and artists (see credits) as well as in commercial music. Most recently, my work can be heard in the 2023 NFL Draft (walkout music).

In addition to this, I work with several independent artists and bands in Chicago's vibrant music scene.

I enjoy exposing my students to new music, techniques, and practice approaches that instill a passionate curiosity of the effects music can have on their lives.

I love figuring out how to tailor my teaching to a student's needs and strengths, and seeing how different approaches to teaching can elicit different results for the student.

    I began a private studio in 2016 with a few students and maintained that thourgh college. I began teaching, part time, in a more formal capacity following my move to Chicago in 2020

    I have worked with 3rd-12th graders as well as underprivileged populations and students with special needs.

    A new band of mine called Mousse had its first show recently!

    Be wary of outdated teaching styles. Being a modern professional musician requires a diverse toolbox of skills and you WILL be wearing multiple hats. 

    Where do you see yourself with music in the next 3-5 years and what do you hope to gain from private instruction?
