I feel everyone can learn to play/write music with the right motivation and I feel I excel in finding a way to utilize each students method of learning to bring out the best in them. My playing styles varies depending on the instrument. Being classically trained on piano and violin, I prefer to play the classics with a mix of pop/rock. On the drums I'm really into heavy metal and jazz. On electric/acoustic guitar I stray more towards rock/pop/country, while bass guitar mostly gets the blues and anything else inbetween. I also produce electronic dance music on my computer and keyboard.

Floyd has a gregarious personality and a spirit that really makes you want to push yourself. A song that I've been practicing is very challenging for my vocal ability as of today, but he's pushing me to be a better singer. And honestly I wouldn't have it any other way.
