I have been playing trombone for about 18 years, and I have a music degree from the University of Michigan where I studied Trombone performance and music theory. I have performed alongside some of the best in the business in concert bands, orchestras, jazz bands, large and small brass ensembles, and pit orchestras for musicals and operas.

Learning new instruments is a passion of mine. I have performed professionally on more than 15 distinct instruments, and have spent time learning dozens more. Through Muse, I teach 12 different instruments: Trombone, Trumpet, French Horn, Tuba, Euphonium, Clarinet, Saxophone, Piano, Banjo, Bass Guitar, Accordion, and Recorder. For clarinet and saxophone, I only teach beginners, but for every other instrument on that list, I teach all levels from beginner to aspiring pro.

I strive to promote a positive and friendly learning environment for all my students. Whether you’ve never touched a mouthpiece before, or you’ve been playing for years, I have studied with some of the best musicians in the world, and I can use all of that experience to help you take your musicianship to the next level.

Muse Music Store also has a Record Label and recording studio, and I am the lead recording engineer and producer. I was also in charge of the acoustic engineering and design for our recording studio. I have a diverse background in many different styles and genres of music recording, and I strive to bring artists to the forefront of my music production to give them control over the music they create.
