Lessons from someone with decades of real world musical experience, and a masters in teaching music. It's all notes. I've worked with everyone from P Diddy to Jimmy Dean. Hearing a student play something differently than how I would play it is an indescribable joy.

I take the biggest joy out of this work and it would be an absolute pleasure to work with you!
