I love to work with students to help them find their musical voice. From beginners to experienced professionals I work towards the goal of erasing the instrumental barrier and finding joy in music making on any level.
I have been playing music since I was a teenager…over 30 years ago…and teaching for over 20 years. I find teaching to be a constant learning experience with no two students alike and I thoroughly enjoy working to discover what makes each student unique and compelled to make music.
I have taught in many locations and in many different settings from one-on-one instruction to ensembles of many shapes, sizes and age ranges to residencies with in Ears ‘n Eyes. Here is a list of where you can find me or you can contact me through the email link at the top of every page of this site or any of the other social links; Facebook and Twitter. I look forward to hearing from you and getting the opportunity to explore the possibilities of finding your musical voice.
Sound Playground – formerly in Eliot Maine, now in Nevada City, California – This is my home studio where I offer one-on-one instruction in Saxophone and improvisation. I also teach beginning to intermediate players on Clarinet, Flute and Trumpet.
