What are you most looking forward to in your new position at the Schulich School of Music?鈥�听

I am excited to meet and collaborate with all students who have chosen to learn and speak the language of jazz, a language that leaves much room for creative individuality.听The Schulich School鈥檚 bold initiatives and the Jazz Area鈥檚 Equity and Diversity Statements are incredibly encouraging and inspiring. I look forward to working, teaching, and learning from colleagues and students alike in an ambiance of inclusion and openness.听

What are some elements that are important to your teaching philosophy?鈥�听

Building an extensive vocabulary is advantageous for improvisation; it facilitates divergent thinking. Furthermore, musicians improvising together are an embodiment of cognitive diversity, therefore listening to each other is essential. I attempt to apply these principles to conversation, teaching, and exchange of ideas.听

What do you want your students to leave Schulich knowing?鈥�听

In music, we are lifelong learners. When we embarked on our musical journeys, we marvelled at and were intrigued by the magic of music.听听

I want to share what I have learned performing with my musical heroes.

It is an ideal and safe place to try out many different styles and discover new affinities. Contacts and friendships forged in college are building blocks of our professional family. The academic community enables and encourages students鈥� aspirations and dreams.听I see, and I respect my students as colleagues at the beginning of their careers.听

If you had a mantra/philosophy/phrase for where you are right now, what would it be?听

When we look beyond ourselves, we are more open to others.鈥�听

What is a key feature in enabling to best kind of music-making and music-learning experience?听

Communication. The best kind of music-making and music-learning experience comes from listening to each other, knowing what to suggest and what to say, and getting to know the people with whom you play.听

What does mentorship mean to you?鈥�听

Commitment, developing a connection, endorsement, sincerity, and trust.听

What鈥檚 on your 鈥淢ust鈥� list for Montreal?鈥�听

Explore Montreal's international cuisine.听

Is there a song you could listen to on repeat for an entire weekend?听
