My teaching experience dates back to my college days, as I began teaching private lessons part time 8 years ago, and have been consistently teaching students in my home studio for the last 5 years. Encouraging regular practice on a consistent schedule is one of the key points I like to emphasize for younger students, as it tends to help the student progress and gain a passion for the instrument. I've also found that a combination of classical and modern music can go a long way in helping students enjoy the piano and motivate them to practice and continue to learn. Read More

All things blues stem from this scale in one way or another. Read More

I will always cater to my students wants, within reason of course. If there is something my student may want to sing or play, I will always find a way to accommodate and allow my students to express themselves through their want. For voice lessons, a lot of the technique I teach comes through vocal warm ups, which is something we will do every lesson. The best part of voice lessons is that we just get to be silly and have fun! Read More
