I'm a passionate and motivated instructor who loves working with students and sharing my love of music and arts.

I have taught in various educational programs in Ecuador, Brazil and Los Angeles, including the Guri Santa Marcelina da Cultura Project (So Paulo), the CalArts Community Arts Association (CAP, Los Angeles) and Cultivating Creative Minds (Los Angeles).

I have been teaching private lessons since 2003, and am on the music faculty at El Camino College, where I have taught class piano to adult students for 9 years. This year I was the chair of the Music Department at California State Summer School for the Arts (CSSSA), an intensive summer program for high school students, where I oversee a staff of 20 music teachers and program meaningful performances and events for our students.

Instruments: Piano Guitar Saxophone Synthesizer Music Keyboard Electric Guitar Acoustic Guitar
My style is to be open about the types of music my students can learn rather than forcing Mozart on them from day one. I create a relaxed environment without stress and complicated assignments that can feel like schoolwork. Music should be enjoyable for everyone involved. As a composer and arranger, I find it simple to take an established song and create an easier version for my student to learn. Read More
Instruments: Piano Cello Keyboard
For beginners, I would first teach them the basic sitting and hand postures, basic note-reading, and basic music theories. After they know how to play piano in an appropriate posture, I would like them to start with Hanon piano exercises. I believe it is a great book to warm up the fingers and a great finger exercises for all levels of piano players. Other than those basic exercises, I would also like to introduce them to one to two simple pieces that are fun to play. Read More
Instruments: Piano
I learn something new from every student, love seeing my students improve and gain confidence in themselves. I ask that students come with an open mind and be prepared to make mistakes because no piece is perfect and neither are lessons. Lessons give you the opportunity to make mistakes without judgement. You can trust me to always have a positive attitude, it is OK to make mistakes, but practice to play better, and enjoy the feedback to see yourself improve! Read More
Instruments: Drums
What advice do you have about practicing effectively?
Go to practice with something specific in mind. A pattern, or a technique, tempo, something you want to accomplish. It doesn't have to be too structured. Just something that you can focus on enough to keep you engaged. Then go wherever your practice takes you. You need to have a certain foundation (rudiments, patterns) because you need something to focus on. Combining patterns will keep interested in what you are doing. This is the key to the joy of practicing. The key is to A. be conscious of what you are trying to accomplish in practice and B. to simply start doing it. Learn by doing. It takes effort, concentration, and perseverance, but is ultimately one of the most rewarding things you can do in life. Mastery through practice.
How do I know if my child is ready to start lessons?
Students need to be good listeners. If your child is able to focus on a specific task for at least a couple minutes, this is good enough to keep them engaged in lessons. If they express interest in music or drums, that is a good sign. You as a parent should also be ready to make some type of commitment to music lessons (making sure they show up, encouraging music things, [we can work together on this]). It is okay to try things out. Think about if your child would be okay receiving instructions from another adult. See if they like the lesson (I am very patient and will do my best to create the best environment for your child).
When will I start to see results?
You should see some results relatively quickly (within the first couple months), whether they be improvements on the drums or overall positive mood changes. One of my current student's parents has told me they notice their child is much more pleasant and outgoing after our lessons. Quick results in the child's ability to play drums will be dependent on the child's effort and/or individual practice time. Even if they do not practice much at home, they may still be able to play fundamental drum beats 3-4 months into lessons.
Did you have a teacher that inspired you to go into music? How did they inspire you?
My dad helped inspire my interest in music. He was a lead vocalist and founding member of Purple Reign, which was a wedding/party band that played and practiced a lot in the house I grew up in. They would set up all the equipment in the living room of what seemed to be weekly practices. I was able to get a taste of the drums at an early age and I always loved when the played. My dad also introduced me to all the classic oldies, funk, rnb, and pop music from the 60s and 70s. He would sing in the car and I always found myself singing along with him trying to harmonize before I even knew what that was. He encouraged me to pursue music and I might have given up if it weren't for his care.
Why did you choose your primary instrument?
I always thought drums were the coolest instrument. The energy and motion of the drummer driving the band, making the music happen. It was always something kind of magical to look at and listen to. The variety of percussive sounds you can get out of a drum kit is fascinating. It would blow my mind listening to what the drummer was doing, trying to understand it, trying to make sense of it. Its kind of a mystical experience what happens when you play the drums, and play them well. I loved them the first moment I hit the bass drum with my right foot and started to try to make cool beats. From there I was hooked.
