Instruments: Piano Trumpet Trombone Euphonium French Horn Tuba
I have been playing trombone since fifth grade, nearly 20 years of experience. I have about 15 years of experience playing the piano and I have learned the other brass instruments out of necessity for my music degree. I can teach trombone and piano at all levels and can teach trumpet, horn, and euphonium to the intermediate level. I always encourage regular practice. It is the only way one can gain experience and grow as a musician. Read More

Instruments: Piano Voice
For voice, I want all my student to understand the importance of fundamental to singing. Therefore, My method of teaching voice is typically work on the fundamentals, the breathing, the preparation before singing, then I want give them exercises and And for piano, beginning students who are children, I typically start with Faber's Musical Adventure. Once the student has progressed to have a grasp of the fundamentals, I will begin to introduce solo repertoire appropriate for their first recital performance. Read More
Instruments: Piano Flute
For me it is really important to see students learning and advancing in music. Understanding every student needs and abilities allows me to set up clear and objective goals for every lesson. Keeping motivating the students through certifying their progress helps them to keep learning. It is also important for me that each student has fun, otherwise I do not feel like I am doing my job!

Instruments: Piano Music
I try to get to know students personally and musically. My goal in teaching is to help students to pursue their goals whether as professional musicians or music lovers which are equally important to me. I dont ever set any fixed expectations and rules in teaching as they are all adjustable to me working with individuals who are all at different levels and share different values. I always talk to my students to figure out what they want to play and what they'd like to achieve by learning, and we would go from there by making customized plans. Read More
Instruments: Piano Trumpet Trombone
To me, nothing is more rewarding than seeing my students' passion for music arise during, and after lessons. For this is the way i believe important progression happens, when the student is passionate about the subject matter and eager to explore and most importantly enjoying it in the process. I always try to set an attainable goal for each lesson, its through these accomplishments that encourages a student to keep progressing and learning more about the instrument and music. Read More
Instruments: Piano Guitar Voice Violin Viola Fiddle
What do you think is the hardest thing to master on your instrument?
I think the hardest thing to master on my instrument is improvisation. Recently I have been practicing improvisation both in the Bluegrass and Jazz genres on the violin, and it takes a lot of practice and creativity to be able to think quickly and put your ideas into action.
What does a normal practice session look like for you?
When I practice, I liked to begin by warming up. Whether it's practicing violin, guitar, piano, or voice, I like to do some body stretches because it's important to get your whole body aligned and ready to focus. Then, I do some scales or simple exercises. During the bulk of the session, I like to focus on parts of my pieces that are difficult. I break them down and play them more slowly, and often put the melodies to different rhythms to help get the songs in my fingers. Using a metronome to keep the time and slowly increase the speed can be very helpful as well. I like to really delve into my practice, giving myself at least an hour to focus.
Do you use specific teaching methods or books? (Ex: Alfred, Bastion, Suzuki, Hal Leonard) Why did you choose them if you did?
For beginners, I use the Essential Elements for Strings books. I choose this method because it gives a very logical and strong foundation on position techniques and note reading. Then, once the student has begun to explore this side of written music theory, I like to introduce ear training techniques. I was partially trained in Suzuki violin, a method where you largely learn by ear. As an instrumentalist who is very comfortable both reading music and learning by ear, I know how crucial it is to have both skills. This makes you a much more versatile musician in that you are both listening carefully to the music you play and playing it precisely.
Why did you choose your primary instrument?
When I was 5, I knew that I wanted to play the violin. My father and older sister both played, and I was extremely inspired by that. I loved the sweet sound of the instrument, and the fact that you could play "fiddle" music on it too.
What musical accomplishments are you most proud of?
In high school, after a rigorous series of auditions, I was extremely proud to be selected as a first violinist for the NAfME All Eastern Orchestra (an orchestra consisting of players all over the East Coast).
At age 20, I wrote, produced, and released my first recording project called Trust a Dream. The process of conducting a band and bringing my vision to life is the musical moment I am the most excited and proud of in my life thus far.
In 2018, I was also selected both in the Spring and the Fall as a Finalist in the International John Lennon Songwriting Competition. It was extremely fulfilling to be recognized internationally for my work as a songwriter.
