My mission as an instructor is to provide students with the easiest method of instruction possible to learn piano and/or drums. I will instruct each student according to their learning style, whether it is being trained classically (reading sheet music, usually beginners) or rote method (playing by ear).

Other areas I will be touching on are music theory, chord reading, improvisation, and how to play in a band.

I have been playing piano and drums since I was a young child. I took formal instruction on piano until I was fourteen. At that time I started learning improvisation, chord reading, and theory.

Currently I play keyboards and drums in my church band.

Music is my passion. It has been a large part of my life since I was young. My desire is to hopefully pass on my knowledge to others and see them enjoy music as much as I do.
