Instruments: Piano Keyboard
Throughout my years in Colorado, I worked several years as a volunteer music teacher assistant. During this time, I worked with children from as little as preschool all the way up to 7th graders and got them engaged in a musical environment. After this, I began teaching private piano lessons to close individuals who wanted to introduced to the instrument. I find so much joy in engaging and motivating the students and I am very excited to continue teaching more students in the bay area. Read More
Instruments: Piano Trumpet
I'm a caring, straight-forward and passionate instructor who believes anyone can achieve greatness when it comes to music. I graduated from The University of Texas at Austin with a Bachelor of Music in Trumpet Performance. I received my Master's Degree in Trumpet Performance from the San Francisco Conservatory of Music. I have performed in many countries including Germany, Italy, The Netherlands, Czech Republic, Austria, China, Taiwan and Japan in venues such as the Kennedy Center, the Royal Concertgebouw in Amsterdam and the Berlin Philharmonie.

Instruments: Piano Guitar Violin Viola Saxophone Flute Clarinet
I love seeing my students grow in their knowledge and appreciation of music! Excellence is rewarding, and I teach the process to get there from whatever level we begin. I use positive reinforcement and notice what the student is doing right. Then, I give critique and an action plan to improve performance. It feels good for the student and teacher when they learn the methods to break down what is currently difficult into smaller pieces so that it is both manageable and possible to go further than they thought.

Instruments: Piano
I began instructing young adults in harmony, theory and piano when I was nineteen in Oakville, Ontario, Canada. After high school, I began putting my poetry to music and this led to a move to California to try and make it as a songwriter. I played with several music acts in the Bay Area, toured the east coast and Midwest, and wrote music for the theater, notably an original score for Bertolt Brecht's Caucasian Chalk Circle. Read More
Instruments: Piano Ukulele Keyboard Acoustic Guitar
For my young piano students, I use the structure of the Faber series to slowly introduce concepts. For my guitar students I have had great success with the Mel Bay series, which combines initial chord playing and some music reading fundamentals. For ukulele, I utilize the Hal Leonard service. With all of my students, I always want to have the students choose songs they like and that they can set as realistic goals. Read More
Instruments: Piano Guitar Bass Guitar Synthesizer Ukulele Double Bass
My style is to get students to start performing and playing songs, so that they maybe come as passionate about music as I am! I try to keep each student at paces they are comfortable with and set goals for each student to get to the next level. I tailor my instruction to inspire students to create and make music. Read More
Instruments: Piano Cello Keyboard
For beginner students I like to start them with basic principles such as how to properly hold the bow and how to properly sit with the cello. I like to use methods such as Suzuki to work on musicality, and Essential elements to work on basics. For intermediate I like to work with the Popper etudes and the Bach Cello Suites, I also add some of the more advanced Suzuki books. Read More

What musical accomplishments are you most proud of?
I recently threw a really cool house show on September 1st, having live music, DJ's, asked a few local businesses to sponsor the event and charged a $5 cover at the door. I've been working several months to book this one band from Austin and finally they got back to me and agreeded to do the show.
It was to my surprise that the lead singer found me at the party and asked me to join their band. I was so busy that night, I told him I would call him the next day.
The next day, I give him a phone call and tells me his band, SMiiLE, is going on four week national tour and asked me to come along. I asked when they were leaving and he said in two days.
The next day, I drove to Austin to have a rehearsal with them and they digged my playing and the day after, we got in the van and were off to make music across the country.
It was definitely a risking move because I didn't know any of these people, didn't know their music all too well and dropped out of school that semester. But I'm glad I did because we ended up making incredible music on the way and it was such a beautiful experience.
What do you think is the hardest thing to master on your instrument?
Consistency of the groove.
Being a drummer, you have to understand your roll is to hold it down..not solo all over the place with fills. Being mindful of the players around you and maintaining a good balance of sound is crucial.
Having a good attitude is important too. No one is going to want to work with you if you walk into the space with a lousy attitude. Music is pure energy, and if you're bringing in this mojo like you know everything or if you would rather be somewhere else..then that's not going to take you very far.
Why did you choose your primary instrument?
Everyone and there mammas wants to be a drummer.
Before there was a spoken language, cavemen would communicate with each other by banging on their chest and hitting things together.
Ever since I was in elementary, I was always tapping my hands or pencils on the desk because I couldn't help it. I needed to be heard. My parents got me the video game "Rock Band" when it came out and I learned a lot of basic rock rhythms through there and I thought it was the coolest thing ever.
I simply wanted to get better and wanted to be the best. So I practiced, a lot.
