My vision statement
It is my vision to provide an education in music. More specifically, I hope to always:
- To treat each student under my charge with kindness and respect.
- To challenge my students with music literature that is exciting and aesthetically rewarding to learn and play.
- To seek out and provide opportunities to perform and to showcase their talents.
- To engage my students in every aspect of their learning.
- To inspire my students to work hard.
- To encourage my students to never give up, no matter how hard the task may seem.
- To hold each student to high standards, both in the areas of music and conduct.
- To do all that I can as a teacher to help each student under my charge and care.
About me:

- I am also a grandfather. I have a beautiful grandson.
