He has also maintained teaching duties as an adjunct faculty member at multiple colleges. In this interview, John talks about: How his first year of college shaped his work ethic His lesser-known but masterful and influential mentors including Al Sergel, Kevin Bobo and Doug Auwarter (read an article on Doug here).

The deep understanding of jazz and swing held by Kansas City musicians and audiences.
