I'm a lifelong trumpet player that regularly plays multiple brass instruments. I've been teaching brass instruments (in formal settings) since 2022. If you need help with playing trumpet, trombone (tenor and bass), tuba, french horn, music theory, or improv, I should be able to help you out. If you want to learn very specific things (such as perfect pitch or circular breathing), I have some unorthodox methods for teaching those techniques.

I'm a lifelong trumpet player that regularly plays multiple brass instruments. I've been teaching brass instruments (in formal settings) since 2022. If you need help with playing trumpet, trombone (tenor and bass), tuba, french horn, music theory, or improv, I should be able to help you out. If you want to learn very specific things (such as perfect pitch or circular breathing), I have some unorthodox methods for teaching those techniques.
I've played in quite a few different types of ensembles throughout the years. To name a few I've played in: wind bands, orchestras, brass quintets, brass ensembles, big (jazz) bands, combos, a mariachi, orchestras, a marching band, and others. I was a music performance major in college, so I've experience the whole "band kid" life. I'm perfectly fine with being your "personal trainer" if you're the kind of person that just wants a teacher that will have you do reps over and over again, and I can also talk with you at length about the differences between cylindrical and conical brass instruments. I'm not one for repeating useless cliches and platitudes, so you'll receive genuine, truthful, original thoughts whenever you get an answer from me. If I do repeat a cliche/platitude, I'll be honest about it. I'm a "straight-shooter" with my speech.
If you're curious as to how good of a player I am and you want to see clips of me playing, you can look up my name on TikTok. I post playing clips there regularly.
