Instruments: Piano Voice
Although my experience working with students goes back to high school, I began teaching at professional studios while completing my BA in Music. I also taught private lessons out of my own studio and even gave some pro bono lessons so I could put what I was learning at university into action. I started teaching Disney and Pop music to kids and teens and decided to expand my teaching to anything a student has to offer in Vocal Performance. Read More

I'm a passionate and motivated instructor who loves working with students and sharing my love of music. In 2016, I graduated from The University of Miami with a Doctor of Musical Arts degree in Jazz 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 all 48 of the contiguous United States. I've also had the experience of traveling to and performing in 45 different countries. Read More

I have taught students of all ages and skills privately for over 8 years. From college level courses to basic piano lessons for young children, I have had experience with all kinds of students and am able to format my teaching accordingly. I begin from what the student already knows, hone in on their individual interest and goals, and craft a tailored lesson plan that is guaranteed to be inspiring and yield fulfilling results.

Instruments: Piano Voice
I encourage parents to teach their children music from young age. Most of my students are kids from age 5-13, level starting from novice to intermediate. I have been practicing tutoring piano for 5 years and voice for 3 years. My teaching style not only includes standard piano playing skills, but also sheet music reading, musical hearing, and proper playing techniques. In regards to voice lessons, I am strongly convinced that knowing musical theory basics significantly improves understanding of vocal basics. Read More
Instruments: Piano Saxophone Clarinet Synthesizer Music
Currently, my teaching experience involves substituting for a drum class in one of the New York City boroughs, and assisting musicians or other campers when needed at Usdan Summer Camp for the Arts when I worked there as a Music Staff Intern. I have worked with multiple teachers throughout my musical journey and experience, and I have since picked up the teaching styles and methods that they taught me. I now want to use my experience and what I have learned to help other students or aspiring musicians, and help show them how fun and enjoyable playing their respective instrument or instruments can be.

My number one goal is to meet the student where they are at!--and we go on up from there. I like to develop a relationship with my students in which there is a shared responsibility. On my part, I will provide the necessary resources and guidance that will help them achieve their musical goals. Their part only requires a simple curiosity and willingness to learn something new along with a focused work ethic to put their newfound skills into practice! Read More
Instruments: Piano Guitar Flute Music Keyboard Acoustic Guitar
I've taught several students over the years and have had truly rewarding experiences. I have taken some time off from teaching private lessons to focus on my academic and clinical training in the field of music therapy. My main goal in teaching is to make my students feel engaged in their practice and motivated to pursue the challenge of learning an instrument. I want to provide a safe space for students of all ages to learn and grow with their instrument in a way that feels genuinely exciting and motivating! Read More

What advice do you have about practicing effectively?
TAKE IT SLOW! This is one of the biggest challenges with practicing. No one wants to play scales slowly, or take their favorite tune at a snails pace to make sure they get the fingerings right. We want the end result - a perfect, polished performance - of course we do! But, that doesn't come without the work. If you're working on a piece, break it down into chunks. Take it bit by bit, and take your time. There's no rush, it's not a race! Set small, incremental goals that are realistically attainable, and before you know it, you'll be at the level you wanted to be.
Did you have a teacher that inspired you to go into music? How did they inspire you?
I studied voice in a childrens' choir, and later their semi-professional adult branch, under the direction of Paul Halley, a Grammy Award-winning artist. That experience led me to tour nationally and internationally, as well as performing with other notable musicians, and instilled a real excitement about what a life in music is life, and how much joy performing can bring me. Under his instruction, I learned much about what I know of music theory, as well as musical expression, in an emotional sense.
What is your dream piece to perform and why?
There are many pieces that I'd love to take the time to learn - In a classical sense, I really enjoy variations on themes. I think it's awe-inspiring to see how a very simple theme can build and change and become something totally different than what it was, while still remaining the same. I feel like variations on themes encompass, in a sense, what music is all about, which may be why I like them so much!
My favorite piece that I have performed was a solo version of George Gershwin's 'Rhapsody In Blue'. The late 1800s to early 1900s is one of my favorite moments in musical history. In the works of many classical composers of this era, you can really hear that Jazz is right around the corner. The chords and melodic phrasings that came from this time are some of the most expressive that I've encountered. And it kept right on going with Gershwin - he took Jazz and put a tuxedo on it, and brought it to the symphony halls. 'Rhapsody In Blue' is, in my opinion, one of the most masterfully composed pieces of music in the last 200 years.
Does music run in your family? Tell us a little about your musical family members.
My family is full of musicians! I initially learned piano from my father, who I would credit as my main and most influential instructor on the instrument. I started studying at the age of four, and transitioned to more repertoire-study around 11 or 12. He has a degree in Music Education, and has also been a church organist his whole life. Now retired from his day job, he plays in numerous bands consistently year-round. I have two older brothers, each of whom are musical as well. My oldest brother is a member of the Army National Guard Band, and my second brother has a degree in Music, and is a professional gigging musician and instructor as well.
