Instruments: Piano Voice
I am a Los Angeles native who's excited to pass on the legacy of music to curious minds! In 2020, I graduated with my Master's Degree from the Boston Conservatory in Music, and this education has left me with a deep understanding of many different aspects of music, including piano and vocal performance, composition, history and dramaturgy, and theory. I believe learning is about developing a fluency in music in general as well as understanding and implementing specific techniques. Read More
Instruments: Piano Violin Viola Electric Violin
Teaching is my passion. I started playing the violin at the age of 6 years old. Music gave me confidence in school and in my life. When I was in elementary school I found out that reading comprehension was difficult for me and so I had to get tutoring. I was very strong in music and that boosted my confidence in school. I have a lot of patience because of this but I also have high standards because I know what my students are capable of doing. Read More

Instruments: Piano
In teaching piano, half my focus is on the student playing the music. The other half involves learning how to move your hands, how to practice effectively (especially when you hate it!) and how to stay excited about piano. Some lessons will focus on different things each time depending on each students goals. Id love to end up having recitals every year so that my students can demonstrate what theyve been working on!

If you weren't a musician what do you think you'd be doing instead?
I would probably do humanitarian work or something related to political science ! There are a lot of people that could use extra help, and looking out for each other as humans is more important than ever.
What is your favorite style/genre of music to play and why?
I’m deeply inspired by the rich, emotional power of funk, soul, and pop — genres that bring together heartfelt storytelling, raw vocal expression, and irresistible grooves. Artists like Aretha Franklin, Etta James, and Janis Joplin taught me how to pour passion and grit into every note, while Whitney Houston and Renéé Rapp showed me the beauty of vocal control and emotional nuance. More recently, artists like Olivia Rodrigo have inspired me with their honest, edgy songwriting that connects deeply with today’s generation.
I love blending these influences because they let me explore the full spectrum of human emotion — from vulnerability to strength — all while making music that moves both the body and the soul. Whether it’s the powerhouse vocals of soul, the infectious rhythms of funk, or the catchy melodies of pop, this mix is where I find my own voice and energy.
At the heart of it, I want my music — and my teaching — to carry that same spirit: bold, authentic, and deeply moving.
If you have a Music Degree, what is it in (Performance, Education, Musicology, Theory, Composition, etc) and why did you choose that degree?
I have a degree in "Pro Music" which is a mix of many things. It includes vocal performance, songwriting and music production. I started off as a scholarship student for voice performance, but simply wanted to expand my creatice horizons.
What is your dream piece to perform and why?
There are so many incredible pieces I’d love to perform, but if I had to pick one, it would be something that combines emotional depth with technical challenge — a song or composition that tells a powerful story and pushes me as an artist.
As a vocalist and pianist, I’m drawn to music that allows me to express a wide range of emotions, from vulnerability to strength, and that connects deeply with an audience. Dream pieces for me are those that create a shared experience, where the music moves both the performer and the listener.
Ultimately, my dream piece is one that feels authentic to who I am — something that challenges me to grow, tells a meaningful story, and leaves a lasting impact. And this all depends on where I am in my Journey and life ! but a current favorite is "Aint No Way" , Aretha Franklin.
