Instruments: Piano Saxophone Flute Clarinet Recorder Piccolo Music
I began teaching in high school, working with middle school students, and continued throughout my academic journey.

Instruments: Piano Voice Music
My music leadership experience began with competitive show choir in 8th grade - voted Student of the Year - and these experiences inspired me through high school! The show choir program director appointed me tenor section leader in 9th grade and Voice Captain in 10th grade for my ability to lead voice sectional rehearsals and provide pianist accompaniment when needed. I am currently a performing arts coach for the Anaheim Union High School District, supporting vocal music and dance program directors with clinician and choreography services. Read More
Instruments: Piano Saxophone Flute Clarinet
I see every lesson as a collaborative effort between teacher and student, and I always strive to create an engaging and positive environment, where students feel encouraged and motivated to advance their musical skills. For some, this may mean selecting a piece of music that is of particular interest to the student (perhaps even one of their own compositions), and tailoring exercises to work towards specific goals for that piece.

Instruments: Piano Guitar Bass Guitar Synthesizer Banjo
I am passionate about introducing music to young students as well as opening new doors to more experienced players. After studying Piano Performance at Biola University I went on the road as the guitar player for the rock band Fastball. I spent the next 12 years touring and recording in bands, honing my craft as a multi-instrumentalist, songwriter, and producer. In addition to teaching piano and guitar I now compose for television and film out of my home studio in North Hollywood, CA. Read More
Instruments: Piano Voice Music Keyboard
Teaching is one of the greatest joys in my life. I genuinely love helping students discover their voice whether thats through singing, playing, writing songs, or simply connecting to music in a deeper way. Watching someone gain confidence, express themselves, and grow through music is incredibly rewarding, and I feel lucky to be a part of that journey. My approach is student-centered, supportive, and personalized. I take time to understand each students unique goals, personality, and learning style so I can tailor lessons that truly fit them.

Instruments: Piano Drums
For percussion, I have performed with many star attractions like Aretha Franklin, Tony Bennett, Frank Sinatra, Jr. and Joni Mitchell, to name a few. Read More
Instruments: Piano Voice
I teach music to students who want to learn music. I can teach different styles of music, includingclassical and popular. Sight reading and ear training are very important elements that I also teach. However, if students only wish to learn one type of music, I willhonor their preference. My training includes a BA degree in Music, and a MA degree in Administration. Read More
Instruments: Violin Viola
If you weren't a musician what do you think you'd be doing instead?
Well, if I weren't a musician, I think I would still be involved in something related to teaching and helping others learn and grow. Music has always been my passion, and teaching the violin and viola to young students like your child is incredibly fulfilling for me.
If I had to choose an alternative career path, I might have become an educator or a mentor in a different field. I enjoy sharing knowledge and inspiring others to reach their full potential, so perhaps I would have become a teacher in a different subject, a tutor, or even a counselor. Ultimately, my desire to make a positive impact on people's lives through education and guidance would have remained a driving force, even if it weren't in the realm of music.
What is your favorite style/genre of music to play and why?
Well, I must say, as a classical violin and viola instructor, my favorite style of music to play is, unsurprisingly, classical music! There are several reasons why I have a deep appreciation for this genre.
Firstly, classical music offers a rich and diverse repertoire that spans several centuries. From the beautiful melodies of composers like Mozart and Beethoven to the complex and emotional works of Tchaikovsky and Brahms, there's a vast array of music to explore and enjoy.
Secondly, classical music provides a fantastic opportunity to develop technical skills on the violin and viola. The intricate phrasing, bowing techniques, and fingerings required in classical pieces challenge both beginners and advanced players, making it a constant journey of improvement and growth.
Moreover, classical music has a timeless quality that allows us to connect with the past and the musicians who came before us. It's a way to preserve and celebrate the cultural heritage of different eras, which I find quite fascinating.
Lastly, classical music allows for a deep emotional connection with the instrument and the audience. The power of classical music to convey complex emotions and tell stories through music is truly remarkable. It's a rewarding experience to share these emotions with both the players and the listeners.
So, while I enjoy various musical styles, classical music remains my favorite due to its depth, diversity, technical challenges, and the profound emotional connection it offers. And I hope to share my passion for this genre with your child as we continue our violin and viola lessons!
