My goal is to bring joy and a positive energy to the students who want to further their musical journey while having the passion and hunger to learn, study, and apply anything for what will be valuable to them. Also I want the students to feel happy and satisfied with whatever they are capable of learning and not being afraid to go the distance of becoming a better musician while taking their instrument serious because the more passion you have for music, the better dedication and commitment you’ll have to keep growing and learning.

I allow students to work at their own pace while also setting realistic attainable goals. I want students to feel relaxed during their lessons so I try to establish an atmosphere that's both informal yet studious.

The best way to understand technique and theory is to apply it to something that you enjoy so I always try to attain this! Read More
