I teach from advanced middle school to professionals. I teach all styles, including classical and jazz out of my studio in Castro Valley, California. I also teach via Skype or Zoom for students that are too far away to travel to my studios. If you are interested in Zoom lessons, please see the recommended requirements.

Philosophically I try to give my students a well grounded instruction in theory, saxophone fundamentals (embouchure, breathing, tone production, tonguing, etc.,) and style (phrasing, interpretation, etc.) My students have a chance to perform at CMEA Bay Section Solo and Ensemble Festivals, and area concerto competitions. In addition, I have had multiple students every year make the CBDA/CMEA All-State Honor Bands.
