I have been teaching privately tuba/euphonium and chamber music lessons for the past 9 years. I have had students in the Ohio All - State Band and Orchestra and many students who continue to major in music in college in conservatories across the US. I use my experience as a performer and teacher of many styles of music to help adapt my lessons for the individual students learning style.

Why take lessons from me? Simple, I am a highly successful musician in the fields of orchestral music, chamber music, and solo music. I have been playing music for 20 years as of 2017. I have over 15 years experience teaching at the beginner, intermediate, advanced, collegiate, and professional level. I have been a professional musician for over 10 years now, and I actually make my living off of playing and teaching music! If you have any desire to make a career out of music, or even just enjoy it as a hobby, I would love to share my love of music with you!

Students can also expect to prepare solos and etudes for Southern California honor ensembles as well as a small recital on a date TBD.
