Once a student truly understands their interests and goals, I believe passion follows. Once the 'fire' has been lit, I strive to inspire my students to find new limits within themselves and encourage them to explore and develop their own unique musicality. I do this by emphasizing strong fundamental techniques as well as honest and specific self-assessment. Music as an art and industry, is constantly changing and I believe that understanding this is key to providing students with a viable musical education. I try to expose my students to as many musical styles, experiences, practices, and theories as possible in an effort to prepare them for such an industry." ity, Central Michigan University, Friends University, Columbus State University, Washburn, Hope College, University of Wisconsin-Madison, Wichita State, and the University of Illinois.
