Instruments: Piano
TRAINING - 10 years of formal training—4th grade through my freshman year of college. I broke my thumb and the medical technology could not reconstruct the joint. Thus my professional career as a piano player had to end, however, I continue to enjoy piano and would like to share this wonderful gift with others! My Bachelors in Accounting and my Masters in Organization Management have some transferable disciplines that easily flow into the music arena: Accuracy and Teaming—these are both vital whether one is playing as a duet or in a band with over 100 members!

Instruments: Piano Music Keyboard
For young learners, I teach using Nancy and Randal Faber's Piano Adventures. For adults, I use the all-in-one Faber adult book. However, as early as possible, I like to get outside of the book and get a student learning a song they love. When it comes to learning piano (especially in the beginning), fun is a critical ingredient for success. In my lessons, I work with students through a lesson book, on repertoire they are interested outside the lesson book, on technique, music theory, and anything a student is interested in or curious about.

I am excited to help you on your musical journey. As a child, I always listened to and wanted to make music. I started my guitar studies as a youth, and quickly moved into traditional classic guitar lessons. In 2014, I started performing regularly as a soloist and in ensembles, began teaching in 2019, and in 2020 I graduated from the University of Washington with a degree in guitar performance, where I studied classic guitar with Michael Partington.

I have been teaching for four years in many capacities, from teaching full bands, to working one on one with students of all ages. I have taught many older students who have a strong foundation in music, as well as young students with no music expierience at all. I have competed in competitions and been a featured soloist, and my love for music challenges me to be the best teacher I can be. Read More
Instruments: Piano Voice Keyboard
My approach to teaching is holistic, positive, and gentle and influenced by my interest in music psychology. I begin by learning about the student's background, interests, and goals. Since goals can change as we gain experience and skill, I help my students discover the possibilities available to them as they study. One of the most important parts of my teaching is to help students learn how to practice in healthy, positive, consistent manner and to develop faith that persistent healthy practice will yield life-long fruits.

My lesson structure is very flexible and has plenty of room for input from the student. My job as your teacher will be to give you technique building excercises and songs that will sharpen the fundamentals of playing your instrument. There are 3 parts to a lesson that I always like to touch on. 1) technique and warmups, 2) assigned material designed to be the stepping stones to your personal goals. 3) something that the student has picked out or has special interest in.

Instruments: Violin Viola Music
When did you decide to become a professional musician? Was it a gradual decision or was there a defining moment for you?
The defining moment was in 5th grade after I won my first solo audition for the Koger Center; I'd been playing for less than a year. I played in front of thousands of people and there was a thrilling sensation I felt, knowing that I was able to touch the lives of so many people with sound. That's when I knew then that music would be a part of me for the rest of my life. Music heals, when words cannot.
Does music run in your family? Tell us a little about your musical family members.
Majority of my family members (aunts and cousins) are singers, my dad played the keyboard and organ by ear and my mother is completely tone deaf.
If you play more than one instrument, how did you decide to start playing the second? (Or 3rd, 4th, 5th, etc)!
I started playing piano after I started playing violin. It made it easier to see the intervals vs having to feel them on the violin.
Do you use specific teaching methods or books? (Ex: Alfred, Bastion, Suzuki, Hal Leonard) Why did you choose them if you did?
Essential Elements (shows the beginning basics of the violin/viola).
Suzuki (to focus on memorization)
Carl Flesch (Scales-which improve intonation)
Kreuzer (Etudes-to focus on various techniques)
Have any of your students won awards or been selected for special honors? How have they succeeded?
My students have auditioned for Region and All-State Orchestra, each one of them have successfully made it, not because of me, but because of their dedication and willingness to work hard.
What do you think is the hardest thing to master on your instrument?
Intonation is definitely the hardest thing to master on the violin or viola. Simply because you can't see where to put your fingers (like a guitar or piano). With time and consistent practice the student will build muscle memory and intonation will no longer be an issue.
Why did you choose your primary instrument?
Majority of my older cousins were playing violin in their school orchestras. I went to a couple of their concerts when I was younger and I haven't looked back since.
What advice do you have about practicing effectively?
Don't feel bad if you didn't achieve your goal in your current practice session. Re-evaluate the way you're practicing. Take it one measure at a time, if you need to, take it one beat at a time and repeat it for 5 mins. Play it slowly with a metronome and build it up to the performance tempo.
How do I know if my child is ready to start lessons?
If they're willing to focus for at least 30 minutes straight, they're ready. Typically a child is ready if they're constantly asking or obsessing over music. Don't worry about them being bored in their lessons, it's my job to make the lessons fun :)
When will I start to see results?
If the student follows the practice structure given at their first lesson, you'll see results within the first week. It's extremely important that the student practices consistently, this will show the best results.
