I am a private trumpet instructor with experience teaching students in one-on-one settings. I have 10 years of experience playing trumpet, and have performed with professional bands in Washington D.C., California, Chicago, and Hawaii. My approach focuses on building strong fundamentals, developing confidence, and helping students reach their individual goals through personalized instruction. I work with students at different skill levels and adapt lessons to each learner's pace, learning style, and musical interests. In addition to performance skills, I emphasize proper technique, music reading, tone production, and effective practice habits that lead to long-term improvement.
Alongside my teaching experience, I am a current college student studying for a degree in aerospace engineering. I have completed math up to differential equations. As an student studying to become an engineer, my experience helps me explain concepts clearly, break down complex material into manageable steps, and support students who may need extra guidance or encouragement. My goal is to create a positive learning environment where students feel comfortable asking questions and making mistakes as they grow.
I played competitive baseball for five years, specializing exclusively as a pitcher and reaching a peak fastball velocity of 82 mph. Through that experience, I developed a strong understanding of pitching mechanics, velocity development, arm care, and game strategy. I enjoy helping Little League, middle school, and even high school pitchers improve their skills through personalized instruction focused on proper mechanics, consistency, and confidence on the mound.
I have experience working with students individually, allowing me to provide focused attention and customized feedback during each lesson. Whether a student is preparing for a performance, learning an instrument for the first time, or seeking additional academic support, I strive to make lessons engaging, organized, and tailored to their specific needs.
