Thank you for your kind words. Dillon's is a great trumpet hang!

I plan on ramping up my trumpet teaching to the level of a real business endeavor. And along with that, I'll do my performance coaching, which is cool because in that I work with all musicians- not just trumpet players.

I've always been a life-long learner with a genuine interest in helping others succeed. When coaching, I employ my performing skills and my (growing) knowledge of applied sports psychology which includes skill sets that aren’t typically well known or widely practiced by musicians. So I'll just do more of that.

I'd like to start a trumpet ensemble that will combine opportunities for young players to interact with seasoned professionals. And I may venture into trying to start a Brass Band.

But, all is not music! I have plans to build my own sailboat and sail the North Channel, between Michigan and Canada, one of the world's most beautiful sailing locations.
