Instruments: Piano
From the time I became a college student at the age of 20, I started part-time piano teaching and have been giving piano lessons to students for over 25 years. I have extensive experience as a kindergarten teacher, church accompanist, piano instructor at church music schools and piano academies. Additionally, I teach over 30 students through private lessons and organize biannual recitals for them. Not only within the United States, but also internationally, I have guided my students to achieve excellent results in various competitions. Read More
Instruments: Piano Guitar Saxophone Flute Clarinet Music Keyboard
My work extends beyond the stage, as I've had the privilege of recording and composing for acclaimed series like HBO's "Hacks" and Netflix's "Insiders." Collaborating with industry veterans such as Rob Lewis, known for his work with artists like Christina Aguilera, Fifth Harmony, and the Backstreet Boys, has been an inspiring part of my journey. Additionally, I've had the incredible opportunity to perform as a soloist with the Madrid Philharmonic Orchestra, presenting my composition "Espirales" and my piece "Murmullos," both of which received awards and were showcased at the prestigious Real Academia de Bellas Artes de San Fernando in Madrid, thanks to the support of the Fundacin Sax Ensemble.

Instruments: Piano Keyboard
The development of the basic skills that are required to lay a foundation for playing the piano is an essential part of teaching. Because repetition, listening to music, and practice can be challenging for some students, I try to incorporate modern music or songs that students like to practice the fundamentals. Since teaching beginners/intermediate, and children/adults require different methods, I first assess abilities and potential, as well as learn about what a student's goals are for learning piano.

I am a enthusiatic and dedicated instructor who loves working with students who love music. In 2015 I graduated from Berklee College of Music with a Bachelor's of Music degree in Professional Music. Performing all over the nation has been one of the most rewarding experiences of musical career as well as creating music that touches peoples lives. I have performed at the Bean Town Jazz Festival as well as in the Boston Symphony Orchestra Hall. Read More
Instruments: Piano Voice Violin
In college, I taught a handful of beginning violin students. Throughout college and my years post grad, Ive taught private and group dance lessons and focus on technique and confidence. I apply the same concepts to my music lessons and love helping students discover their personal voice. I encourage regular practice and personal compositions. Every student is different and I am hopeful to find the system that works for each one. Read More

I am a classical trained musician. I was brought up in Bloomington Indiana, the home of the no.1 rated music school in the States (by the teacher's association). Ever since I was 10, I was involved with the University music life. I had the fortune to study with Janos Starker - perhaps the greatest cello technician in the world! His playing style is comfortable, clean, natural, and free of tension problems. Read More
Instruments: Piano Guitar
I've been a passionate musician all my life. Ever since my Nana bought me a mini electric piano when I was 3 ears old, it's been a staple of my life ever since. I studied guitar and piano all through out grade school and high school and continued my music education into college. I studied production, jazz, and theory at JJC of Illinois before transferring to DePaul University. I moved to L.A to perform and have been here for the past year teaching music at the West Coast Music Academy of Santa Clarita. Read More

How do I know if my child is ready to start lessons?
If they have an interest in starting lessons, definitely let them try it out for a trial period to see if they still like it for however long of a trial period you, the parent, decide on.
When will I start to see results?
It can take time to see results depending on the students' musical background, but you will see small results happen before any big results.
Did you have a teacher that inspired you to go into music? How did they inspire you?
Yes. I have had an assortment of piano,flute, guitar, professors, band directors that inspired me. They all encouraged me to not give up on myself when I seemed to not be making much progress with a difficult piece.
Why did you choose your primary instrument?
My sister started with piano, and me being the annoying little sister, I wanted to take lessons as well. But it ended up turning into something much bigger than 7 year old me would have ever anticipated.
What musical accomplishments are you most proud of?
I'm proud of playing a junior recital at college and for putting on mini recitals at the churches I have been associated with over the years. I am proud of my students as well for all of their progress. They remind me why I do what I do.
Have any of your students won awards or been selected for special honors? How have they succeeded?
Not yet, because they are mostly beginners, but my one student is about to finish her first set of method books in about two weeks. She has made a lot of progress in eight months.
What do you think is the hardest thing to master on your instrument?
The hardest thing to master on my instrument is technique. There are so many different ways to play different styles of piano music. How you play soft on a Baroque piece is different than a Romantic piece.
Do you use specific teaching methods or books? (Ex: Alfred, Bastion, Suzuki, Hal Leonard) Why did you choose them if you did?
I use Bastien Method books for the faster paced elementary learner with some music experience, but Piano Adventures by Faber and Faber for those with no music experience prior to starting piano lessons.
What does a normal practice session look like for you?
A normal practice session looks like scales and technique exercises for warm up. It's important to get your body warmed up first, before diving into a big piece. Spend about 10 minutes warming up, with about 10 minutes each on every piece you are working on.
If you have a Music Degree, what is it in (Performance, Education, Musicology, Theory, Composition, etc) and why did you choose that degree?
I have my Bachelors of Art in Music degree! I chose this degree because I really love music, but didn't want to teach in a K-12 setting, just privately. I would eventually like to obtain my Master's Degree in Piano Performance and Piano Pedagogy.
What is your favorite style/genre of music to play and why?
Romantic style of music is my favorite to play. I find it the most beautiful and soothing to listen to. I'm not as big of a fan with Baroque music, but I definitely don't hate it.
If you play more than one instrument, how did you decide to start playing the second? (Or 3rd, 4th, 5th, etc)!
I was in band in 4th grade and I had the opportunity to start a new instrument. This is how I got started playing the flute and I still am today. I learned the piccolo in college.
I got started playing organ during my freshman year of college. I have experience playing organ and piano in sacred worship settings. I've played for 3 weddings, and will be playing for more this summer and fall.
I started guitar in 10th grade.
Does music run in your family? Tell us a little about your musical family members.
Music runs in my family. My sister took piano and clarinet lessons. My maternal grandma took violin lessons for a short period of time. My other grandma and her mother also played organ and piano. My paternal grandma also played guitar.
What advice do you have about practicing effectively?
Don't rush through your songs just to get through them. Take time breaking each line of music, or measure down. Skipping over mistakes and never fixing them is also detrimental.
When did you decide to become a professional musician? Was it a gradual decision or was there a defining moment for you?
It was a gradual decision over my college years. My defining moment was when I completed my own solo recital my junior year of college.
What is your dream piece to perform and why?
Clair de Lune by Claude Debussy is my dream peace to perform because I've played it multiple times at weddings and always get so many compliments of how beautiful the piece is. It has an effect on other people emotionally.
If you weren't a musician what do you think you'd be doing instead?
I have no idea. I think I would do something with the arts still, but I'm not sure what that would have been. Music has always been my go to art.
