TriTone Music Studios
I am a singer/songwriter who has never been able to picture my life without music. I attended university in NYC as a music major and learned incredible things about myself during that time. The most important part of that journey was the love of sharing my knowledge and abilities with others. When I moved back to Canada in 2012 I began teaching at local studios as a way to fill my time. An opportunity arose to open my own school and I knew it was right. TriTone Music Studios now has over 100 students per week who participate in yearly recitals, complete royal conservatory of music exams and write their own music. We teach all ages and levels, if you want to learn, we want to teach you! Music matters and we are thankful to share it!

Taylor Truck Training Services
After a 33 year long career as a truck driver I became an entrepreneur, opening my truck driving training facility in 2013. Tractor-trailers is my niche, but I quickly expanded teaching Z Endorsement certification, DZ driver training and safety and compliance courses. After a long and arduous journey, in June of this year, I realized my dream of becoming a private career college offering the new M.E.L.T. AZ driver training program. From humble, uncertain beginnings to where we are today is a direct result of my team and the vision and goals we set for ourselves as a team. At TTTS, we’ll continue to serve the public and offer the highest standards of commercial driver training in the industry that has been my life long work and passion.
