Instruments: Piano Voice
My background is in musical theater and I have sung, acted and danced my way around the world. I love what I do and love to share this passion with my students. I get the greatest joy out of helping my students connect with their own voices, gain confidence and see them grow as a person and as artists. I also teach beginners piano, because for me the piano is the perfect way to introduce children to music and give them a basic map of what music can be. Read More
Instruments: Piano Voice Synthesizer Keyboard
My approach to teaching is very student-centric. I firmly believe that every student has unique talents and insights. I strive to find the right balance for every student, between their personal goals and what areas of opportunity for growth I see for them. It is my mission to help every student get the most out of every lesson, and leave knowing that they have discovered something new about themselves and their ability to connect with music. Read More
Instruments: Piano Guitar
From my own experience learning music, my greatest motivation has been the fun of discovering something new. I motivate my students with the same ideology. I build my student's curriculum based on music that they have a love and passion for, music that they will be excited to learn. I also teach students practice techniques that will bolster the students growth with efficiency and fun. I help students to track gradual growth in their practice by honing their routines into healthy learning habits. Read More
Instruments: Piano Violin
I start with the basics and for young students do nursery rhymes and songs they know,this makes it more enjoyable for them. I also ask them what music they would be interested in learning and see if I can find an easy version of this. Lately,the Encanto movie has been popular and Ive been teaching younger students these songs. Many of my teen students like to learn Beethoven and other classical composers. Read More
Instruments: Piano Guitar Violin Cello Accordion
I use All for Strings, Suzuki, Klengel (scales) at the beginning level. I proceed to Concerto repertoire, Popper, Dotzauer etc. The usual classical repertoire. I will also transcribe popular pieces or pieces that the student enjoys to really increase motivation. I also test weekly to inform students of where their practice ability is at and what they need to improve on. I have a very effecient practice style that I have developed on my own and am quite proud of. Teaching is my life and it makes me happy to see students improve. Read More

Instruments: Piano Voice Ukulele Music
Why did you choose your primary instrument?
As a child I often excelled academically and socially, but found a tremendous amount of jealousy and comparison both within and without. I found it difficult to identify my unique artistic voice, and often sublimated myself more than was necessary. As I stepped into adolescence I discovered that my unique gifts and showmanship had a place in the arts, specifically for singing and acting, and I readily found my tribe in that nurturing environment.
What musical accomplishments are you most proud of?
It is my delight to have a Masters in Music that has been put to excellent use in my college, professorial career. Prior to that time I participated in the Broadway National Tour of "How the Grinch Stole Christmas" and worked as a professional voice over artist for MTV, EECI, Achieve the Core, Playstation and more!
How do I know if my child is ready to start lessons?
They'll tell you! If your child is singing around the house at the top of their lungs, or using utensils to bang on the table, it might be time to sign them up for lessons! Music has been found to increase discipline, comprehension and academic scores. If your child is longing for more community, greater confidence and self-acceptance, the arts are a wonderful resource to utilize!
When will I start to see results?
This is the wrong question :) The most important shift in your child's life will most likely be internal, and relatively quiet. The moment of success is not the moment most apparent to the crowd. When your child is smiling, enjoying themselves and in acceptance of the full range of their emotions, the arts can be a valuable resource for bolstering their self-identity and fulfillment. Awards are important. Tests are important. Performance is important. But humanity and self-worth far outstrip any external result that is quantifiable.
Did you have a teacher that inspired you to go into music? How did they inspire you?
Many, many teachers that have inspired me over the years. Bob Richard, from the National Tour of "How the Grinch Stole Christmas" continues to be an amazing choreographer and director. Professor Al Clifft of Azusa Pacific University was a tremendous asset in my academic growth. And the unique relationships of family, friends and creative colleagues have added to my own unique creative diversity.
What advice do you have about practicing effectively?
For young children practice time can be easily included with other academic pursuits, otherwise it will mostly likely not happen. I also like to motivate younger kids with stickers, awards and candy, when applicable. External and internal rewards are a huge component of long term growth. I also offer steady performance opportunities for increased motivation...
