TEACHING
I believe that music should be accessible to everyone and regardless of their chosen career path every student should have the chance to study with someone who will nurture their growth and help them achieve their goals. Every lesson is tailored to the student's needs and while every student is required to master various technical aspects of the instrument they will also learn the artistry of being a musician. I encourage each student to listen to recordings to gain a better perspective on various playing styles in hopes that they will be able to find a voice of their own. Through their lessons I hope that my students not only learn valuable skills that they can transfer into musical careers but also skills that will help them in their daily lives. Former students have been accepted to Texas District, Region, and State bands/orchestras, New Mexico All State, appeared as featured soloists with the New Mexico Philharmonic, and been accepted numerous universities including the Universities of New Mexico, Houston, and Texas at Austin, Utah and Texas State, BYU, Mannes College, and the Manhattan School of Music.
I currently am a private lesson teacher in Leander and Round Rock ISDs and am accepting students to my private studio. Please email to discuss scheduling and rates.
