Instruments: Piano
I have been playing the piano for 10 years, but have been involved in the musical institution for much longer than that. I have been shaping minds young and old in piano technique and music theory for the last seven years. And, I believe I am an ideal teacher for anyone just starting out to those who are trying to continue from where they left off. I have been afforded the pleasure of performing in many of my University's recitals and concerts as a solo pianist and ensemble piece. Read More
Instruments: Piano Voice
I helped students successfully prepare auditions for college, musical theatre productions, all-state choir, summer music programs, and more. I taught students in a wide variety of musical styles and skill levels. I was also able to sing in two professional choirs from 2010-2019. For the last 7 years, in addition to teaching private piano and voice lessons in my private studio, I also served as the choir director/music theory/music appreciation instructor at the Illinois Mathematics and Science Academy, a small state-funded boarding high school for gifted students.

Instruments: Piano
I train students in performance, improvisation and composition, and use multiple forms of disciplinary actions to correct students behavior. Each student's progress is my progress. I love to work with students of all ages. I am serious, disciplined, and structured. However, I am also exceptionally friendly, helpful, polite and patient. I am fluent in English, Russia, Azeri, and Turkish. Read More
Instruments: Piano Saxophone Flute Music Keyboard
I have taught many students about Music Theory, composition and the Saxophone, and have helped all of them reach new levels of fluidity on their instruments, gain deeper understanding of concepts, and develop more extensive knowledge of Theory, and how to apply it. It is a true pleasure to see my student succeed and have the Aha moment when a concept that they were struggling with, morphs into something they dont even need to think about. Read More
Instruments: Piano Drums
I am a native of Fort Worth, TX. I began playing and singing at the age of 11. I participated in music during school from elementary to college. My accomplishments include placing first place in solo and ensemble, marching band contest, jazz band contest, etc. I have also established my own band and group who performs in the DFW metroplex. I have played in church since I was 12 years old. Read More
Instruments: Piano Acoustic Guitar
Each student learns at their own pace, therefore goals are set individually for each student. Students need to have a passion for learning music, therefore I try to create a fun, patient environment in order for children to learn. I believe in setting goals and acknowledging when an accomplishment is made to reinforce the desire to learn. Regular practice is encouraged and incentivized if needed because practice is a necessary habit in learning and furthering development. Read More
Instruments: Piano Saxophone Flute
I like to start from the ground up, which means I start with Music Theory. Yes starting off with learning how to play the instrument is great but, if you don't know what you're doing while you're blowing then whats the point? Read More
Instruments: Drums Conga
What is your dream piece to perform and why?
My dream piece to perform would have to be a full big band reconstruction of Moanin by Charles Mingus. I chose this piece because it takes the listener on a rollercoaster ride that does not seem possible. The key changes and the intensity that comes from the rhythm section gives very simple lines the horns play attitude that is unrivaled in many Jazz recordings. Charles Mingus was also a passionate individual devoted to the music and to get an opportunity to step inside one of his pieces would help one understand his perspective on the music as well as the feeling he put into every note.
What does a normal practice session look like for you?
I usually spend thirty Minutes warming up with simple exercises to maintain specific techniques important for control of the sticks, I then take time to work on coordination with particular concepts I pull from various ideas that I find interesting at the time. After I become familiar with that particular idea I then try to put it in a another context that stretches the idea into another form so I can expand on my creativity. I then usually work on this until I feel comfortable applying it and then I will play along to songs that come up randomly on YouTube autoplay to solidify the idea in unexpected or unfamiliar settings. After I have worked around the idea enough to feel entirely comfortable I will work on sticking exercises with reading and increasing tempos to work on muscle development and clarity.
What do you think is the hardest thing to master on your instrument?
The hardest thing to master on the drum set is the interdependence of limbs, and a misconception is commonly thrown around that each limb needs to act independently, however this causes a problem in that it is more difficult to group certain rhythms together without a focal point. Building beats from the feet to the hands or the hands to the feet creates a focal point that can be a reference for other rhythms to be added to. It is incredibly difficult to conceive four different things happening at once thinking they must be different, but it can be much easier to break things down into an alternating pattern which the feet do, and how that works with that the hands do.
What is your favorite style/genre of music to play and why?
My favorite genre of Music to play is Jazz, and more specifically Jazz that incorporates Latin styles of music because I enjoy the freedom that Jazz enables as well as the groove that Latin music has as a function to create movement within the crowd. Both genres are great in themselves and I enjoy both on a high level, but when they are combined I recognize a greater whole is created that is much more significant than the sum of its parts. There are moments of suspense that get resolved into the most beautiful transitions that enable the listener to experience something that was thought to be not possible in many ways.
