Everyone can learn.

I believe that every student can learn to love music — my job is to determine a student’s unique learning style and maximize it. With over 30 years of experience, I bring a sense of fun, joy, and adventure to every lesson, for every student, young, old, and in between.

Since every student is unique and extraordinary, each one deserves uncommon instruction.

I firmly believe that:

Each of us process and perceive information differently.

 People (including children) do not learn identically.

 There is more than one way to get from here to there.

My job is to help you find your own unique path.

Resources for Parents + Teachers

For years, I’ve been creating resources to use in my own practice so that every student had access to the tools that would catapult them to success. Now, I’ve made these resources available to both parents, home-schoolers, and teachers of music — because every student deserves the chance to experience the joy of music.

These are the same books that I use and have tested with my students. They’ve given me feedback and over the years I’ve tweaked this system to achieve proven results: EVERYONE can learn to love making music!
