I believe that choosing lesson material should always be a collaborative experience between student and teacher. Flexibility is one of my core values in teaching music, as I’ve found that each student has unique interests, goals, strengths, and weaknesses. Rather than going into lessons with a set curriculum, I like to give students some agency over what they’d like to learn while making sure to cover fundamentals as they apply along the way. Read More
Instruments: Piano Synthesizer Keyboard
I treat each student individually. Everyone has their own pace of learning and their own capabilities. I cater my lessons towards their needs. It is important as so they can have a successful learning experience and development. I also like to learn about what kind of music they like and I find the music they want to learn at their skill level. I usually incorporate several different genres into the lessons that they desire to learn, including Pop, Musical Theatre, Film Music, and even world music. Read More

Instruments: Piano
My teaching philosophy centers around fostering strong and lasting relationships with my students, enabling them to feel supported and motivated as they progress in their musical journeys. These connections often begin when my students are as young as 5 or 6 years old and continue to thrive throughout their formative years. I feel immensely gratified to have been an integral part of their growth and development, and it is a true honor to witness their achievements as they ultimately pursue their college education and embark on new chapters of their lives.

Instruments: Piano Guitar Drums Mallet Percussion
I began teaching 19 years ago and as one drum student grew to two, then to the occasional piano and guitar student, I eventually was teaching 35 students weekly. I've been lucky in that I have taught such a wide variety of ages and skills. I've taught actors to drum for roles, writers the lingo of the jobbing musician, and family bands pop songs for the school talent show. I've always been open to scheduling whatever is easiest for the student, and I'm happy to do in-home lessons but since I began teaching the technology has advanced substantially. Read More
Instruments: Piano Voice Music Keyboard
Do you use specific teaching methods or books? (Ex: Alfred, Bastion, Suzuki, Hal Leonard) Why did you choose them if you did?
I do not use specific methods or books that I use. My teaching style and the music selected for each student is purely based on the needs and goals of the student. My goal is to always challenge the student while allowing them to feel a sense of accomplishment.
How do I know if my child is ready to start lessons?
Typically, I prefer to teach students who are in their teens because their voice has started to mature. I am comfortable teaching students as young as 10, where basic musicianship and music fundamentals are introduced..
When will I start to see results?
This varies among students and their stage of development. Most students will not see results immediately. It takes time to train the voice. However, with smart and consistent practice, growth can be seen within the first weeks of lessons.
Did you have a teacher that inspired you to go into music? How did they inspire you?
My high school choir teacher inspired me to pursue music. She was always encouraging and support my goals in every way possible. I hope to be like her as a teacher and make an impact on my students' lives.
What is your dream piece to perform and why?
My dream performance would be a concert of Britten's Canticles. I believe they are each powerful works of art that brilliantly display the story each tells.
If you have a Music Degree, what is it in (Performance, Education, Musicology, Theory, Composition, etc) and why did you choose that degree?
All of my degrees are in performance. I simply love to perform. Whether I'm singing in an ensemble of 40 or giving a solo performance being on stage is one of my passions. Performing music allows me to express emotions or share a message with a greater population.
Why did you choose your primary instrument?
I began singing in my high school choir, but I did not take my first voice lesson until I began my undergraduate studies.
What advice do you have about practicing effectively?
In order to practice efficiently, one should practice every day. Practices should begin with both a full body and vocal warm up, which includes stretches, breathing exercises, and other vocalises to prepare the body to sing. When practicing a technique or learning new music, "slow and steady wins the race!" This will ensure than good habits are being built into the instrument and the techniques and music are accurately learned.
What do you think is the hardest thing to master on your instrument?
Coordination of all of the moving parts is the hardest part to master. The voice is a complex instrument, and when a new technique is introduced, another may suffer. Learning how to balance each aspect is a challenge, yet very rewarding.
If you weren't a musician what do you think you'd be doing instead?
I would probably be a travel agent. I love to see the world and experience new cultures! I try to travel when there is free time in my schedule.
