Instruments: Piano Guitar Voice
My first passion has always and will always be music. I have been involved in music performance all my life, from singing in church at the age of four to being in performing arts magnet programs at Hyattsville Middle School and Suitland High School. I formed a love for psychology later in life. Fortunately, I have found a field of study that will allow me to pursue both at once, music therapy. Read More
Instruments: Piano Guitar
I always encourage students to study and practice on a regular basis. This greatly helps them make progress and like the instrument over time. Nonetheless, it's important that each student progresses at his or her own pace. My homework sheets are designed to address both of those points. I always encourage them to practice well; when they practice well, they improved and once they improve they start to like the instrument more. Read More
Instruments: Piano Voice Music Keyboard
I find the process of exploring music and finding solutions together with my students to be intensely uplifting and meaningful, since, as mentioned earlier, each musical soul is unique. While I set clear standards of excellence, I am also patient with all levels and abilities. Indeed, teaching beginners (including adults) is a special passion of mine. A typical lesson will include warm-ups, scales, arpeggios and etudes, followed by detailed work on repertory pieces. Read More

My teaching experience dates back to the beginning of high school. Though it wasn't music education, I am very much use to private teaching. I started my education career at "Kumon of Bowie Math and Reading Center," a tutoring center created to emphasis one-on-one assistance for students in need. After working there for five years, I pursued my undergraduate education until Spring 2017. During college, I also worked as an ear training mentor. Read More

I am passionate about both classical and contemporary music and take great pride in helping students develop their musical skills, whether through theory lessons or practical instrument instruction.

What advice do you have about practicing effectively?
It doesn't get any simpler than "Practice makes perfect!" The more you practice the better it will be!
Practicing for a hour or two everyday is very beneficial depending on age. From Breaking down each hand and each part, it can make a big difference.
How do I know if my child is ready to start lessons?
Believe it or not, the child's discipline in practice and motivation will let you know if they are ready. if you force a child or intimidate them to play or practice they will not enjoy the craft of piano. They will not appreciate it. Of course trial lessons are to be in order to determine focus, concentration, excitement, and stamina.
When will I start to see results?
Results can be seen from a week to a month!
Did you have a teacher that inspired you to go into music? How did they inspire you?
I didn't have a teacher to inspire me when it came to piano, however my dad was the one who motivated me to take an interest in learning the piano. I have no fancy story but a friend of his told him about a program and he thought it would be good for me to try it. I have been in love ever since! Clarinet is a different story. My fifth grade teacher inspired me to play and perfect the clarinet. I saw the school band and was very impressed. I wanted to be apart of that greatness. I picked out the clarinet itself! My fifth grade teacher was very supportive.
What musical accomplishments are you most proud of?
I am most prud of my recital awards for determination and improvement. I am the most proud of joining the music fraternity of Sigma Alpha Iota Inc.
Do you use specific teaching methods or books? (Ex: Alfred, Bastion, Suzuki, Hal Leonard) Why did you choose them if you did?
I encourage and prefer to use the series by James Bastien. I also grew up learning my best craft from that series while growing up. I love how it's something for every type of student in that series.
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 degree in General Music with a concentration in Clarinet.
If you weren't a musician what do you think you'd be doing instead?
If I was not a musician, I believe I would be in the medical field or in interior design.
What is your favorite style/genre of music to play and why?
Jazz,Gospel and soul.
If you play more than one instrument, how did you decide to start playing the second? (Or 3rd, 4th, 5th, etc)!
To be honest I had a favorite cartoon with a character who played the clarinet, and I watched the character continue to try to master it. That was my motivation. He made it fun and comical.
Does music run in your family? Tell us a little about your musical family members.
I have an uncle who used to play the trumpet. My father used to play trumpet and guitar. My Grandmother sings a little bit as well.
When did you decide to become a professional musician? Was it a gradual decision or was there a defining moment for you?
It became a gradual decision right out of college being that I wanted to jump right in!
