I am a professional composer, songwriter, multi-instrumentalist, producer, engineer, and music teacher currently living in Parker, CO after a number of years living in Boston, MA and Jeju Island in South Korea. I graduated from Berklee College of Music in 2015 with a BM in Songwriting. I spend the vast majority of my time continuing my own musical education and subsequently spreading the joy and power of music with others. Recently, I've released an album of solo piano music called "I Dreamt We Fell In Love," listenable everywhere ^^ Read More
Instruments: Piano Flute Piccolo
I meet students at their skill level, to ensure that they enjoy their learning experience. From there, we work together at a pace that is right for the student. This varies from person to person, and depends on the outcomes they want to achieve. I want students to stretch in order to expand their abilities, and reach levels they could not find without guided assistance, but I am not a demanding taskmaster. Read More
Instruments: Piano Violin
I use the Suzuki method for violin and the Alfred curriculum for piano. The Suzuki Method really focuses on the ability to train the ear first before reading music. I believe it is important to teach music reading skills as well as playing by ear. My hope is to guide students early on and teach good technique from the start so that they will not have to change bad habits later on. Read More
Instruments: Piano
My lessons are usually 30 minutes long for beginners. On top of learning from a piano series, I like to incorporate songs and styles that the student is insterested in learning. Theory and technique are also very important aspects of the lesson. Most importantly, I want the student to find their lesson time enjoyable, and make them excited to learn more. Read More

As your teacher I make your music goals my top priority and guide you through our lessons based on what you hope to achieve. I have a wide range of experience and can draw upon many different teaching styles depending on the needs my students. Every student has challenges they face when learning an instrument and my goal is to help isolate those challenges and create a plan for conquering them. Read More

Perhaps the most beautiful thing about the teaching is sharing the knowledge with the students. Acquiring a new knowledge can be compared to making new big and small discoveries almost every day. It always has been rewarding and inspiring for me. (I believe its the most important part of my motivation). If the teacher has enough teaching skills, techniques, and personal charisma for showing the students how interesting, thrilling and inspiring every small discovery is, she/he is very happy teacher who can motivate the students well.

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 a Bachelor's Degree in music performance from Hope College, where I also got a Math degree! I also have a Masters in Music in jazz studies from the University of South Florida. At the time, performing is what I wanted to pursue (with math as a backup in case I wasn't able to support myself, lol), and it is in fact what I do for a living. In hindsight, I might have gotten a teaching certificate as well. I didn't realize how much I'd love teaching until I got into it, and now I'm passionate about it.
What is your dream piece to perform and why?
I've actually been able to check off quite a few of those boxes since joining the Air Force band 15 years ago:
- 43 states and 13 foreign countries
- playing for 3 U.S. presidents
- Carnegie Hall
- NFL halftime games, MLB 7th-inning stretches, NBA and NHL pre-game shows
- major jazz festivals across the country (e.g. Clearwater, Telluride, Twin Cities, Monterey)
- frequent national and local TV/radio spots
But my "dream" place to perform is for an audience who's attentive and with whom we connect. That can happen at a civic center in Bemidji MN, an orphanage in Djibouti, or a cafeteria/gymnasium in Kazakhstan just as easily as the Kennedy Center.
If you weren't a musician what do you think you'd be doing instead?
I love math, so probably something like being an actuary or statistician. Possibly a math teacher, because I really love to teach. In my early 20's, I taught for the regular source of income, but now I realize I really love it. I love the puzzle of helping someone figure something out, I love the light-bulb when they have an epiphany, and I love the "before" and "after" pictures of seeing them progress over time.
What is your favorite style/genre of music to play and why?
Whatever I'm playing at the moment. I know that sounds like a politician's "sitting on the fence" answer, but I really mean it. I'm probably most adept at playing jazz and classical music. But I deployed in 2017 as a keyboardist with the rock band, and I loved it! Whatever the audience is into, that's what I want to give them. When they're really into what I'm playing, there's an energy that I feed off - it's great!
What does a normal practice session look like for you?
I try to spend the majority of my time working on "real" music, whether that music is a written piece, something I'm learning by ear, or a jazz tune I'm learning how to improvise over. Scales, long tones, and other exercises are great, but I try to spend no more than 25% of my practice time on them, and I recommend my students do the same. The purpose of the exercises is to help you play music better, so immediate application is key.
