«Todd was my son’s private saxophone instructor as well as the head of the school’s jazz band. He not only provided great musical training but also he acted as a wonderful role model. I can’t say enough about his influence, most notably his support in helping my son pursue a jazz studies major in college with a merit scholarship.»
