Instruments: Piano Saxophone Flute Clarinet
I believe it is imperative to create a positive, musical learning environment for my students and cultivate their love for music. My lessons are individualized and tailored to meet the individual student's musical goals, level and learning style. I provide each student with a practice sheet to monitor their progress. Different students have different skill levels and different needs. Therefore, I assign each student a realistic, attainable goal for each lesson. Read More
Instruments: Piano Trumpet Flute Clarinet Double Bass
Over the past 10 years I have developed different methods of teaching musical concepts so that if the lessons don't make sense the first way I explain them I can teach it from a different angle. Not everyone can learn the same way so you have to be flexible with different teaching styles. I like to make sure the student learns not only what they need to know, but also what they want to know.

Instruments: Piano
Teaching piano has been a continual experience for me that initially began as a part time venture. For the last 10 years, I have enjoyed sharing my knowledge and experience with students of all ages. Each of them have their own individual style that I like to help them explore in order to encourage their expansion into the plethora of repertoire and genre's available. Whether it's classical or broadway, I work with all of my students to enhance their understanding of the world through musical expression! Read More
Instruments: Piano Flute Recorder
Methods are tailored around the individual needs and goals of the student. Fundamentals in music theory are balanced with repertoire and lessons focus on developing practice skills that the student can use outside the lesson. The Suzuki method is ideal for beginning flute students, particularly young students. This approach allows students to become comfortable holding the instrument, producing a solid tone, and training the ear, before introducing notation. For beginning pianists, the Bastien series works well in terms of breaking down repertoire into manageable pieces and marking students' progress in early study. Read More
Instruments: Piano
I am pretty new to teaching, since I started at around August of 2017. I taught for around one year in my senior year of high school, and had to leave for college during summer of 2018. I taught students at any place they were convenient with: sometimes at my studio, sometimes at their homes. I loved teaching when I first started. I am mostly focused on classical music, but teaching students helped me understand many more genres of music. Read More

Since middle school, I have always loved helping friends with passages from solo and ensemble and band pieces, no matter the instrument. Whether it was rhythms, notes or intonation, even if I didn't know how to play the instrument yet, I would use a fingering chart and help them however I could. During high school, I would help beginner students that have never made a sound on an instrument learn the basics of what the instrument parts do, how to blow/buzz on the mouthpiece, and how to read music and play the instrument along with the music.

What advice do you have about practicing effectively?
Ten minutes a day. No matter what. It doesn’t have to be moving mountains, or anything crazy. But it does have to be completely focused. And just be aware of what happens in those ten minutes, and you will, over time, notice progress.
Also, recording your lessons can be extremely helpful! If you go back and listen to an adjustment you’re given by your teacher and begin to notice the quality to your sound adjusting, you can be reminded of what your teacher instructed you to do to arrive at that point and put it into practice.
How do I know if my child is ready to start lessons?
They have demonstrated intense interest, and responsiveness to music. They appear to be at an age where they have the focus and drive to really work at something that could take a while to gain a grasp of. And if they show that they genuinely love it, and are passionate about growing and learning more about singing. So, have a conversation and just ask “is this something you could see yourself having a lot of fun doing and that would make you excited?” Because that’s what makes a disciplined musician in my eyes, someone who practices because it’s fun and exciting.
When will I start to see results?
You will start to see results when you stop looking for them. There’s something pyschological about singing that although you have to be diligent in lessons and apply the corrections and learn proper technique, all that changes once you have an audience in front of you or you just start singing more often and to more people. Once you have practiced pretty steadily and begin to trust that you are understanding the concepts, you can begin to really see how your foundation has become solid and your practice has paid off!
Did you have a teacher that inspired you to go into music? How did they inspire you?
Yes; every voice teacher I have had has given me an incredible gift of using my voice. Not only to sing, but to express what I felt and to communicate. Singing is an amazing way to tell stories, express emotion, and connect with an audience. My voice teachers made sure that as much time we spent on technique, we spent on understanding the lyrics I was singing and why I was singing. Making sure it was important enough to have people see and listen to. Also, all my teachers were also performers and I got to watch them practice what they preached.
Why did you choose your primary instrument?
I chose my primary instrument because I came from a household that loved vocalists. Whitney Houston, Elvis Presley, Luciano Pavoratti, Barbra Streisand, Josh Groban, Celine Deon, The Beatles were all in the background playing as I grew up. I really started to sing a long at an early age. I began doing theatre as well and learned they could be done together and tell really important stories through song and fell in love with it. I joined choir in 3rd grade and have been singing ever since and began voice lessons when I was 13 years old and began to grow and expand my technique.
What musical accomplishments are you most proud of?
I am most proud of becoming a finalist in the Hal Leonard College Musical Theatre Competition. To have made it to the finals in a nation wide voice competition singing music I loved was a wonderful experience, and I also got to watch the other contestants and see their love for this material as well. I felt so seen and like I was on the right track in my vocal practice and making sure I was still expressing myself clearly and truthfully in singing. It is work I love doing and continuing to learn and grow into.
