Experience
Experience teaching Trombone, Bass, and Guitar Lessons Experience Tutoring Math and Physics all levels up to Undergraduate College Level I studied Physics and Music during my time as an undergraduate, earning degrees in both fields. During that time, I supported myself by performing with various jazz and blues bands in the Memphis area. I moved to Chicago two years ago to earn my Master's degree from DePaul University in Jazz Trombone. I've taken some time off from school to dedicate myself to practicing and teaching. I have served students as a tutor since I was a teenager, across numerous fields, including Physics, Math and Music. I am comfortable with students of any level and seek to help students find joy in these fields as I have. I have always found learning to be a fun experience given the right teacher, and I hope to serve students as my favorite teachers have served me.

Hobbies
I have a love of many subjects, from philosophy to science, jazz music to hip hop. I am a patient and motivated teacher, and I try to remain flexible enough to serve the interests of any student at any skill level. In my spare time, I love to read just about anything I can get my hands on. I play soccer on weekends, even in the winter! I am happiest when performing music around the greater Chicago area with the various ensembles in which I am involved. I hope to share my experience, knowledge and love of learning with your student.
