After graduating NEC, I moved to New York. Read More

My teaching style is focused on playing as much as possible and encouraging good practice habits. The most important thing I can do as a teacher is teach my students good practice habits! This includes showing students not only WHAT to practice, but HOW to practice it. By spending as much time as possible in the lesson playing together, I have found that my students have more fun playing in the lesson, learn more, and in turn practice more during the week!

Instruments: Double Bass Music

Music is a vital part of how we process emotions as individuals and communities. I believe in meeting students where they are no matter their age or skill set to increase their ability to express themselves through music. I aim to provide a well-rounded approach taking into account musicianship skills (listening, reading, singing, and improvising) as well as technical bass skills (left and right hand technique and posture). I also hope to work with students' passions to make their personalized goals have the most significance. Read More
