In Their Own Words

"I want my students to walk away with methods of catalyzing their creativity and workflow. The music industry will grow and change, but being able to remain creative will keep you going."

"I have seen different sides of the music industry in my career so far from releasing music independently, starting my own record label, releasing music with other labels, and producing for television. I am also very active in my career right now. The combination of my experience and active career keeps my ideas, technique, and insight relevant to my students."
