I have a love for teaching as well as for learning, and am always sudying something new. I have experience performing in a range of styles, from classical to jazz to rock and pop to bluegrass. After graduating from Reinhardt University, I took contracts on cruise ships, playing electric bass in show bands and orchestras on Carnival and Princess cruise lines; this gave me the chance to see much of the world, as well as the opportunity to perform challenging music nightly.

My teaching experience began right after high school where I joined my musician friends teaching at K-Piano Music Academy. I taught children beginner piano schools K-5 in an afterschool program and have been teaching aspiring musicians mostly online since 2020.

I focus on "learning how to learn" techniques that can take you far. Read More

For beginning students, I always start with technique and posture, as improper technique can be catastrophic to your playing down the line. From there we'll cover the basics, such as chord shapes, strumming patterns, and scales.

For example, if the student in question likes Punk Rock music, every week we'd go over a riff from a popular Punk song. Read More

For beginners on guitar and piano, I start by introducing a basic understanding of music theory, so the students are comfortable with the fundamental mappings of notes and intervals. From there, I teach chords, scales, rhythms and song composition. I work with my students based on their individual musical preferences and desires -- whether you want to learn how to play your favorite songs, how to write your own songs, or how to play lead lines and solos, I'm here to support and nurture your craft!

My methods are not standard, I believe in teaching technical sides of an instrument and the creative sides. For younger students I will teach them the basics of chords and progressions, eventually leading to write their first songs.

Finding inspiration through practice and jamming with a friend or even a teacher is something I want to teach. Read More

A vast majority of them were Musical Theatre singers, but I utilized classical technique and scientific understanding to teach them how to fully utilize their voices and yield the most control and best sound possible out of their instruments. I also began teaching guitar, pop vocals, and even developed a unique approach to teaching songwriting utilizing basic music theory knowledge and common chord progression techniques to help young artists get the sounds in their head into a concrete song.
