Born and raised in the suburbs of Chicago, at the age of 9, Natalie knew music was something that was just a part of who she was. Writing songs on the piano before lessons could be scheduled, Natalie found herself immersed in a medium that would bring her joy for the rest of her life.

By age 14 Natalie had won several trophies competing in Classical piano with the Illinois Music Association.

As an adult, she would go on to fill her life with the world of music as a singer, songwriter, performer and recording artist.

I've been playing guitar for 15+ years. My favorite styles are rock, blues, pop, folk, soul, and country. I learned through both private lessons and independent study.

In addition to private lessons, I've learned through various method books and through the insight and direction of more experienced musicians I've played with. I've played with various bands/artists in Central Florida and performed regularly in church ensembles.

Currently, I play guitar at Real Life Christian Church. They're a multi-site church with roughly 4,000 weekly attendees and campuses in Clermont, Orlando, and Kissimmee.

I am a recent graduate of the Stetson University Classical Guitar (performance) program and also regularly perform in professional groups across a broad spectrum of genres.

Another passion of mine is digital arts, in which I minored during college. With experience in Pro Tools, Logic, Ableton Live, and Max/MSP (sound design and music programming), I am well versed in these areas.

I grew up in Jacksonville, Florida, where I began playing music around the age of 11. I was selected to attend LaVilla Schol of the Arts in 6th grade, where I began playing various low brass instruments and playing in the school's symphonic band. I decided around the age of 13 that I wanted to begin playing guitar and soon found myself in the classical guitar program at LaVilla, along with still playing in the symphonic band and making All-State band later that year.

When it came to the decision of where I would attend high school, I wanted to attend Douglas Anderson School of the Arts so that...

I started playing the drums at the age of ten and have been playing for over thirty years. I played snare drum and bass drum in symphonic band in junior high and high school. I played in the Drum and Bugle Corps while in the Air Force. We marched in parades and won several awards for excellence. I have played in three Christian bands and one rock band. I have also played drumkit and percussion in church for several years.

This real world experience of playing with live musicians in different settings allows me to show students what does and does not work well with playing the drumkit. Whether you have dreams of playing in a touring rock band, playing in church, or just jam out with your favorite songs, I can help you reach your drumming goals.

I've been playing drums and percussion since the age of 13, and teaching as soon as I graduated high school. I have studied and performed on all manner of percussion instruments, with emphasis on Rudimental Drumming and Drumset. I received my Bachelor's Degree in Music from Rollins College, and my Master's Degree in Music from the University of Florida, and outside of the world of academia I've played with Orchestras, Drum Corps, Indoor Drumlines, Rock, Jazz, and Steel Bands, as well as all manner of Wind and Percussion Ensembles.

I began taking drum lessons at a very early age and continued on and off with various teachers for the better part of twenty years. I will always be grateful to them for the knowledge and wisdom they imparted on me and for the positive influence they have had on my life, especially the ones with whom I really bonded and who were essentially mentors to me while I studied with them.

As a teacher, there is no better feeling than seeing a student make progress and knowing that you helped him or her along the way, while at the same time not taking the credit, as it is always the student who has the harder job, who must do the real work. I always feel tremendous satisfaction when a student masters a difficult rudimentary exercise for the first time, or is able to execute a challenging rhythm pattern on the drum set. The expression on their faces often conveys pride over their achievement, and I can often sense a boost in their self-esteem. This is why I teach.

I began playing...

Jill holds a Bachelor's degree in Music Education and has master's work in choral music. For many years she has taught private and group music lessons to all ages and many varying styles of singing and instrumental music. Her lessons are unlike the ones she remembers from childhood; Jill's lessons are full of fun and excitement each week. It is amazing how students react to Jill's great humor and the lessons certainly prove that learning is a process. Jill brings more than just technique to the studio.

Having been a soloist herself, Jill knows what it takes to prepare and rehearse and therefore she makes it clear which concept the student will learn each week. With an instrumental and choral background, Jill brings music to life and then shares with the students how to keep music in their lives forever.

Jill has worked with children in many schools, churches and after school programs that she designed. Her success with students who are very young or...
