Instruments: Piano
I am a motivated instructor who wants to bring the joy of music to my students. I graduated from Berklee College of Music with a Bachelor of Music in Performance. I have had some fantastic journeys so far as a musician performing all over the world since when I was young, and performing at Boston Symphony Hall was definitely the most memorable experience. I believe that I will advance my career even further as a musician, and I hope my passion and energy toward music will inspire my students to grow together. Read More
Instruments: Saxophone Clarinet
I'm a passionate musician, with a deep knowledge of many styles of music. I am equally motivated to help my students find success on the saxophone or clarinet, whatever their goals are. I have had the great fortune to play music on 4 continents, and recently played my first show (of hopefully more!) at the House of Blues in Boston, to a sold-out crowd. I have taken hundreds of lessons over the years from masters such as Dave Liebman, Gary Smulyan, and Lynn Klock. Read More
Instruments: Piano Saxophone Organ Synthesizer Keyboard
I play saxophone and keyboards in a nationally touring funk band. We regularly headline music festivals and currently focus our shows in and around New England. I've also recorded on several acclaimed artists' albums. I have a background in jazz and studied Piano and Saxophone Performance and Jazz Composition at Berklee College of Music. My teachers were amazing as I progressed through the schools. And they were so fun and inspiring that I want to make playing piano or saxophone as exciting and rewarding for you as it was for me!

Instruments: Guitar Drums
I enjoy sharing my musical knowledge to students so they will advance in their musical aims. In 1983, I attended The Guitar Institute of Technology and studied privately with Frank Gambale, who formalized the single line "sweep technique" on guitar. While in L.A. I also studied with Ed Mann, longtime Frank Zappa percussionist and teacher at Cal. Arts. In Boston, I became assistant to George Russell on the revision of his 1953 copyrighted and published book "The Lydian Chromatic Concept Of Tonal Organization" released in 2001. Read More
Instruments: Piano Guitar Bass Guitar Ukulele Music Keyboard Electric Guitar Acoustic Guitar
I have been teaching lessons for 5 years now and got started teaching while studying at Berklee, since then I have grown a lot as a teacher. I have taught guitar and music production at Needham Public High School, where I taught students of all skill levels in classroom settings. I also currently teach at School of Rock Watertown where I teach private lessons as well as ensembles. In both of these jobs, I worked with students of varying age ranges from 7 to 70+ and learned techniques to make information stick. Read More
Instruments: Cello
I'm a passionate instructor whose goal is to empower students through music. In May 2018, I graduated from Boston University with a Bachelor of Music Degree in Cello Performance. At BU, I had the opportunity to perform as assistant concertmaster with the University Orchestra, and performed in master classes for Boston Symphony Orchestra members. I also spent a semester studying music in London, at the renowned Royal College of Music. Upon graduation, I have been working as a cello teacher at Bridge Boston Charter School’s El Sistema string program. Read More
Instruments: Cello
As I am certified in Suzuki Book 1, I start students with Suzuki books and methods, while also supplementing with other materials and incorporating any extra music/activities a student might be excited about! With students who have already started, I will often still refer to the Suzuki materials, but I will pull more from other books and repertoire. I am very flexible in strategy and method based on where the student is at and where they want to go, no matter their age. Read More
Instruments: Guitar Bass Guitar Ukulele Mandolin Fiddle Electric Guitar Acoustic Guitar
If you play more than one instrument, how did you decide to start playing the second? (Or 3rd, 4th, 5th, etc)!
I have a hunger to learn what I like the sound of. Because of this, I have picked up many Instruments that are found in the Celtic music tradition as well as many others.
What is your favorite style/genre of music to play and why?
My favorite style of music would have to be Celtic music. I grew up playing it with friends and family, so it has become a part of who I am.
If you weren't a musician what do you think you'd be doing instead?
I don't think I could do anything outside of the arts. If not a musician, I would pursue acting, comedy, or perhaps writing. I love to cook, so perhaps I would consider being a chef. It's all about being a creative. I believe in order to truly experience life, you need to experience the sweet satisfaction of creating something.
What does a normal practice session look like for you?
I sit down, set a timer for at least 30 minutes, and play through my latest or favorite piece along with a metronome. I start the metronome slowly and work up speed over time.
What do you think is the hardest thing to master on your instrument?
the hardest thing to master is a truly effective practice method. Just like anything else, it requires a routine to be successful. Developing routines is a very hard skill to master in my opinion.
Why did you choose your primary instrument?
My father loved Rock & Roll, so i followed suit. We would jam for hours when I was as young as 8 years old. I just loved being able to sing and play my favorite songs whenever I wanted.
What musical accomplishments are you most proud of?
In 2016 I was flown across the Atlantic to perform at the Largest Celtic Music Festival in the world, Celtic Connections. In 2019 I played on stage with one of my greatest heroes, Liz Carroll.
Did you have a teacher that inspired you to go into music? How did they inspire you?
My first Fiddle Teacher snapped me out of my nervousness by putting the fiddle in my hands and giving me cold hard facts: that if I wanted to learn I needed to play my very first notes, even if they didn't sound good. She played along with me slowly which greatly reinforced my confidence.
When will I start to see results?
If your heart is in it, you could be playing music in some small way in as little as one month or less. All it takes is the will to learn and a love for music.
When did you decide to become a professional musician? Was it a gradual decision or was there a defining moment for you?
Growing up, I payed Celtic style guitar with friends or at events purely for the love of it. Over time it became clear that this was something I could do professionally as people started to pay me for the music I gave them.
