I'm a passionate and motivated instructor who loves working with students and sharing my love of music. In 2007, I graduated from the University of Central Arkansas with a Bachelor of Arts degree in Piano/Trombone Performance. Performing all over the world has been one of the greater experiences of my life as a musician, and I've had the opportunity to play in Hollywood on American Idol, Hong Kong, Costa Rica, United Kingdom, Bahamas, Puerto Rico with the former lead singer from Journey, and many other places around the United States.

My teaching experience dates back to 3 years ago, I was teaching during each summer back home. My goal for teaching is preparing students to be well-rounded musicians and fall in love with music. I would love to encourage students and challenge them to most their potentials. I've been through a lot of struggles with my past experience of my teacher didn't know how to teach me step by step. Because of my past struggles, I would understand my students more. Read More

Watching someone's face light up the minute they completed a song with small amount of mistakes brings a smile to my face. I remind them it's not about learning the song and mastering it right away, but rather taking time to be comfortable with what they are doing. I get to know my students so I know how fast or slow we need to work and what interests them so I can motivate them along the way. Read More

Aside from attending to the normal duties of a section leader, there were several times when I would privately teach students or host sectionals at my home. I have done this for three years and it has been a major success. I love helping students develop their skills and seeing them grow. I would encourage practice at least a little bit each day and I always helped them prepare for a concert or a recital. Read More

What advice do you have about practicing effectively?
Find a time of day where you have the most energy and free time, and commit to setting aside at least 10 minutes per day to your practice. Consistency really is key! Target the trickiest sections of your music to begin with, and finish by playing through your most favorite parts. Even practicing should be fun!
How do I know if my child is ready to start lessons?
Your child's interest in and passion for music are the biggest indicators that they are ready for lessons! Ability to focus for up to an hour at a time is important to begin, but the biggest thing that creates a productive, successful learning environment is the student's desire to be present and learn.
Did you have a teacher that inspired you to go into music? How did they inspire you?
I have had many teachers who have inspired me to pursue music throughout my life. Each one shared their own passion for music, sparking the fire within me in turn. Their impressive skills as well as their constant encouragement inspired me to improve, and gave me the desire to be a positive mentor for my students today.
Why did you choose your primary instrument?
I don't remember a time when I didn't love to sing! It is a unique and exhilarating experience to have your own voice as your instrument and means of expression. There is nothing I love more than conveying a message and bringing joy to people through singing.
What musical accomplishments are you most proud of?
My favorite musical accomplishment has to be winning the title of Choir of the World with my college choir at the 2015 International Eistedfodd in Wales! To share a stage with so many talented choirs from all over the world and to hear their musical offerings was a life changing opportunity. Taking the title was just the cherry on top of an incredible experience!
If you weren't a musician what do you think you'd be doing instead?
If I weren't a musician, I would likely be a counselor or therapist. I love working with people one-on-one and helping them to live in alignment with their happiest, most successful selves.
What is your favorite style/genre of music to play and why?
My favorite genre to sing is Musical Theatre! I have trained in MT longer than any other style, but it is the stories, characters, and great opportunity for emotional expression through the text and music that gives me such enjoyment.
Does music run in your family? Tell us a little about your musical family members.
My late grandmother (Lola, as my Filipino side calls her) was my earliest music teacher. When I was 6 years old, she sat me down and taught me everything she knew on the piano. It wasn't much, but enough to light a fire in me to keep learning and eventually go on to singing. It was my dad, who used to be the lead singer of a rock band in the 70s, who showed me all kinds of music and shared his love of self-expression through singing. He's still my favorite duet partner to this day!
