Instruments: Piano
I studied piano at Texas Wesleyan University under Dr. Ilka Araujo, graduating in 2016. I've had the opportunity to play in various concert halls in the DFW area, including the Fort Worth Modern Art Museum, the Fort Worth Woman's Club, Nicholas Martin Hall, and Alkek Recital Hall. I also had the distinct privilege of being selected by mayor Betsy Price to serve as a musical delegate in the Sister Cities signing agreement between Fort Worth and Guiyang, China. Read More

My Grandmother inspired me to play piano. My church taught me to sing. In high school I was involved in band and choir and was selected to tour Europe with a college group. To this day I work with foreign exchange students. In college I continued my musical studies although I majored in Public Relations. This allowed me me to take classes such as oral interpretation and work in radio/TV which enhanced my performing skills. Read More

My teaching experience dates back to my college days, as I began teaching private lessons part time 8 years ago, and have been consistently teaching students in my home studio for the last 5 years. Encouraging regular practice on a consistent schedule is one of the key points I like to emphasize for younger students, as it tends to help the student progress and gain a passion for the instrument. I've also found that a combination of classical and modern music can go a long way in helping students enjoy the piano and motivate them to practice and continue to learn. Read More
Instruments: Piano
I started studying piano in my early teens and have continued studying all of my life. Even to this day I still practice 30-45 minutes every morning. I have played professionally all of my life as an accompanist for vocal and instrumental soloists, and having taught high school choral music for over 20 years, accompanied a variety of vocal ensembles. I have performed for weddings, banquets, parties, and civic gatherings, and have been my church's pianist and chief musician for the past 15 years. Read More

For beginning students I have a number of books, resources and methods that I utilize in order to keep the lesson engaging and enjoyable. For more advanced students, I typically have a lesson plan or a direction that I want to go after assessing strengths and weaknesses. For all of my students, I always ensure that we are learning and practicing music and concepts that they find enjoyable and is headed in a direction that they want to go, all the while still challenging them of course.

Instruments: Piano Flute Piccolo
No matter the level of the student, I think it is important for them to have achievable goals to work towards. I like to have my students always preparing for something, whether it is an audition, recital, or competition. We do this by working on a combination of solos, etudes, fundamentals, duets, and sight-reading activities. I like to make sure that whatever we are working on is at the right ability level for the student and challenges them appropriately. Read More
Instruments: Drums
What advice do you have about practicing effectively?
For techniques and learning songs, If you feel like you are stuck, slow it down. This is the advice that I have gotten from every single teacher that I had so far. SLOW IT DOWN until you feel comfortable with playing it.
Another thing is, always have a practice plan, what I always suggest to student, is to have a practice time sheet. For example, for first 1 hour, you will do rudiments, for second hour you will do sight reading practice, and for 3rd hour, your will practice on the music you are assigned or trying to learn. It is very easy to lose focus in while practicing, and having practice plan will help you to have an efficient practice.
How do I know if my child is ready to start lessons?
Every one must be ready to take my lesson as long as they have passion and love for music.
Level and age don't matter in my lesson, I will be welcoming any kind of student from any age.
In my opinion, there should not be any requirement to start taking lesson except love of music. If your child loves to listen to music, taping table with music, sing, or anything, he/she is ready to learn music. The most important thing is to have fun and motivation, as long as students have a passion towards music, they already are students.
When will I start to see results?
It definitely depends on what a student is aiming for. If he/she is seeking to learn a song, you can obviously see a result when they are able to play. In my experience, from any level of student, they will be able to learn a song that they desire within 2 weeks or a month.
If he/she is seeking to be able to play improvise, I would say it will take 2,3 years to improvise on music.
If he/she is seeking to learn every 26 American rudiment, it will take 1,2 years to learn every one of them. Hope I answered this question, but in a nutshell, it really depends on what a student wants to learn.
Did you have a teacher that inspired you to go into music? How did they inspire you?
I did not have a teacher that I was taking a lesson, when I got into music, for me the best teacher is musicians that you are always listening to. To be a good musician, you have to listen to a lot of music and get inspired. When I was 11, I started to listen to Guns 'N' Roses, Nirvana, Stone Temple Pilots, so on and so forth. I got inspired by them by simply listening to their music, I always want do to play music like them, that is what made me started to learn music.
But to be specifically about a teacher that I had in the past. Dave DiCenso, is definitely the teacher I got inspired for the most. He taught me how to be an over all good drummer, how to listen to other musicians on a gig, and how to play drum set musically. These things boosted my enthusiasm towards music, and I went into music way deeper after taking him as my private teacher.
