I graduated from Schaumburg High, under the direction of Kevin Miller and Greg Tipps.
I have been currently teaching for the last 2 and half years while also attending college for teaching in the fine arts.
I was in the U.S. Marine Corps for 4 years, and deployed aboard the USS Bataan.
I love teaching my students and watching them grow as musicians!

I am currently teaching music at a theater in Crystal Lake, IL 60014.
I am very into the new age of music, as well as the old.
Some of my inspirations are Mozart, Bach and Telemann.
I thoroughly enjoy Led Zeppelin, Pink Floyd and Jimi Hendrix!
As for today's music, I am very much into the EDM scene.
I love Bassnectar, Excision, Griz, Gramatik and Flume, to name a few :)
I play many instruments, but grew up playing the oboe/ hautbois.
Adjusting reeds is a life long journey!!
As of now, I focus on woodwind instruments, piano and marching snare drum.
I believe understanding music theory is the basis for any musician.
Understanding the theory in music, poetry or any art form will further your studies much quicker.
I am also familiar with and use DAW's (Digital Area Workstation's) on a daily basis.
I mainly use Ableton Live and FL Studio, with the help of VST plug-ins, i.e. XFER Serum.
I have a pretty open schedule and can work around your availability.
If you have any questions, feel free to contact me!
